STORY EXCERPT
I was crying for all the times I never got to rest and for all the times I never got to be with my kids. After I got through all my stuff, I found myself crying for all the times my mother never rested and for the pain she had felt from losing two children. Then I was crying for my grandmother’s pain of losing her mother when she was three. And then, when all that was done, I dropped into the place in the collective unconscious that I call “the pain of all women.” And when I hit that, I started to make those sounds you hear in the Middle East at the Wailing Wall—primal sounds of pain. I didn’t know that I had those sounds in my body. And as I continued, the whole room began to sob in the same way.
