A surprising way to begin
A write up of Providence Death Cafe
My goodness....another Death Cafe tonight and the subject ranged as usual - but we began much differently - instead of laughter yoga or my awful ice breakers - we had a proposal of marriage and acceptance. It set a kind of joyous tone as we explored infant death and the love & grief of parents, ideas about accepting imminent death only to be surprised with a change to imminent life, we await the word from our death row friend as he enters his final appeal and talked about the complications of death penalties, we also talked about the concept of the "death hormone" and whether or not our bodies are programmed to make everything all right in the end. We will be back next month on the third Monday and third Thursday - so stay tuned!
