Sorrow & Joy

A SOULSPACE SPOTIFY PLAYLIST

I took this photo at Quartermaster Harbor during low tide. The beauty of the sunset is intensified by a thick blanket of clouds and the dark, swampy shore. Click on the image to access the Sorrow & Joy playlist on Spotify.

 

Here’s a playlist for days we are holding this paradox. Naming and feeling my own pain reminds me of my connectedness to others, in sorrow and love.

Sorrow and joy are not oil and water,
They’re hater and lover, they inform each other.
Attract and repel make us sick make us well,
But in the end we must hold them together.

From the Indigo Girls song, “Sorrow & Joy”

Would you like some company as you attune to the ways you attune to your life with compassion and kindness? Kirsten offers spacious accompaniment and trauma-informed spiritual direction. I’d love to hear what’s stirring in you and meet with you for a free exploration session.
