		<description><![CDATA[I am usually bursting with words. But tonight, I am feeling quiet and thankful; just thanking God for the words of my students and the two nurses who nursed me physically and spiritually last week. Words of love. Their words (of my students and the nurses) have healed something in my heart that I cannot [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Woke up around 9 this morning. I&#8217;ve had the luxury of doing that for the past week or so &#8212; since I came home from the hospital. Something my mind and body has needed. Although, I don&#8217;t know if waking up a few hours late is a luxury when my emotions have such a grip [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hubby went to  my school to pick up the boys and brought these home for me. They are from a student. I love that orchids symbolize love, beauty and strength. But in his culture &#8212; he is Chinese &#8212; I believe they can be symbolic of the innocence of children. Whatever they symbolize, they translate [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Silence as I lay in a hospital bed, its back stretched back as far as it would allow. I was just as tired and uncomfortable and achy as that old bed. Seemed as if we probably hurt together. I was hot. Thirsty. Delirious. My head hurt and did that just happen? The baby? Died. Yes, [...]]]></description>

Kids and hubby gone to church and the house is quiet &#8212; except for some sad taps on my laptop and some sadder notes from Norah Jones singing Rosie&#8217;s Lullaby to my empty heart.

She had just had her baby. A girlfriend and I stopped by the hospital with a tiny pink and purple Disney outfit. It was tiny, just like my sister&#8217;s baby [...]]]></description>

I sat here writing for a  full hour, filling the page with juicy, juicy details about a person who I decided has not yet learned to forgive and as a result is harboring bitterness.
