Gosh, my tear ducts have been dry as a bone recently but I just had to sit down for a good guttural sob after reading this. So so good, Sonya. Even more excited for the essay workshop now. ✨
Sonya. 😭😭😭😭 Standing in my kitchen ugly crying right now. I love you. Thank you for writing this. Your vulnerability makes me feel so seen in my own story.
I am taking this multiple choice test as well (baby blue dress here, and going with the boyfriend), and why is it a test with answers that are and will always be immeasurable?
Not sure if I ever filled the tub with water or if I’m actually bathing in my own tears right now. This is so sweet and tender and devastating. I’m in awe of you. So glad you’re writing. And sharing.
Read this instantly. I checked my email before going to the bathroom and within 8 seconds knew my bladder was going to have to wait. This was absolutely stunning, Sonya.
Sonya, my mom died of cancer in the summer after my freshman year of college, and I felt every word of this essay. Thank you. Incredibly stunning and honest.
Have you read Dancing at the Pity Party? It is a quick read and so beautiful, especially for moms whose own mothers died of cancer when they were far too young.
Hang in there through this difficult month and seasons of transition. Sending so much love.
The teacher and the jewelry. 😭❤️😭
That’s where I started crying and it quickly turned to sobs after that😭
Yes!!! Actually burst into tears when I read that part.
Teachers are the best. What a beautiful love story.
That got me too.
Right!! 😭
Oh Sonya. The stories you didn't tell, within the ones you did. Wow.
