Saying Goodbye

Wyoming, August 2024

“We are showered every day with gifts, but they are not meant for us to keep. Their life is in their movement, the inhale of our shared breath. Our work and our joy is to pass along the gift and trust that what we put into the universe will always come back.” -Braiding Sweetgrass

I cannot imagine a more beautiful place to say goodbye to two family members at the place that brought them the most joy.

We’ve slowed down this week to spend time by the fire, to laugh, to remember, and to grieve. The women that we are honoring truly built an amazing community, rooted in love and determination. It’s a gift to be part of it all.
