I think we can all relate to when “The days wouldn’t translate into a phrase”—when fragile hopes and desired plans are translated into loss too wrenching to articulate even to ourselves, and we must surrender to grace. I appreciate the tension cultivated in your precision of phrase in conveying pain that resists naming.
