The curse is found far, wide, and deep in the world, in me, in every cell.

The curse is found far, wide, and deep in the world, in me, in every cell.
I pictured a warm, strong, impenetrable blanket or atmosphere of loving approval all around me.
This truth, that denial has no curative power, was all I needed to trust the wisdom of centuries of believers and observe the season of Advent.
If every year I begin advent with an ache in my heart over dreams never realized, bodily pain, and loss, then I am appropriately humbled.
