Of all the holidays that could crush me, this was not the one I expected to succeed.
@kitt π (I saw someone, maybe @vasta? post this as an empathy heart, I liked the idea a heap). Holidays of any sort can be wicked strange -- they grant/curse us with the space or frame of mind to be open to things that elsewise we wouldn't notice.
@kitt Sorry. It's a hard one for a lot of people. My wife, who lost her mother to cancer 11 years ago, still finds it hard.
I hope you feel better soon.
@patrickrhone thank you for your kind words! hugs to your wife, I hope each year is at least a bit easier for her.
@eli the π had that meaning in slack at my previous workplace -- nice to see it catching on βΊοΈ
@macgenie well hey, as I said: it's really just an organic change I've made with some friends and co-workers, but I'm happy to see it spread around! I tend to use π as the friend heart, too. That's from another of my peeps! βΊοΈ
P.S. π
