You know shadow work is never ending. I often tell clients that it’s like an onion. You deal with what’s there, then you pull back some layers, cry and deal with more, cry and repeat. Having Dolly transition for me is no different.
For those of you don’t know my mom passed very suddenly from complications of pneumonia in 2005. Since then I have been on the onion spiral of shadow work and healing.
My mother loved Dolly Parton. I remember as a kid sitting and watching the Dolly show with her and I remember Dolly ending the show with her singing “I Will Always Love You”. That memory stuck with me so much that when my mother died, that was one of the songs played at her funeral.
Now with Dolly‘s death and hearing that song everywhere, I am again peeling back another layer, working on some shadows, and, of course, doing some crying.
Dolly was a wonderful soul that was almost too good for this earth but we were so blessed to have her. I hope for a peaceful transition for her and may all those that her life touched be comforted during this time 💕
