Mother’s Day is joyous. It holds space for single mothers working multiple jobs to provide her child with the life she dreamt living. Mother’s Day is also painful. It will take you places you’d rather not go. The world collectively pauses and acknowledgement is met with grief as secret memories mourn losses and celebratory moments are lost in forgotten silence.

A Wrestle For My Healing

Healing, thought of as acts of the supernatural, is more often felt as a powerless process. Prayers in church, a plea that God’s will be done, and waiting for the miraculous often cultivates feelings of powerlessness to do. Healing communes with the supernatural, though more often than not, it’s a journey of wrestling.
