I so appreciate when something mundane dispenses greater wisdom. It's like that adage: how you do the small things is how you do the big things.

I think it's also why I appreciate the pairing of two seemingly disparate concepts -- how is a funnel like holding space for someone, as you've asked here.

Or, what can a funnel teach me about connecting with my teenagers? Or, how can I channel the funnel at different points in my day?

Thank you for the inspiration.

I really like this, Carole as it answers the question I asked at the end of my piece about Lucy (the horse who lost her stablemate, Rocky). But in trying to imagine what you just described (great description) I found I couldn’t relate - that what you described was not how I perceive or process grief. SO interesting. Obviously there is no one right way to come to terms with or process emotions, so now I am even more curious to hear what others will say.
