From great loss, a great freedom, by Isabel Allende

Meditative Story

CHAPTER

The Story of Paola

I'm unattached from physical things and people I may lose. Unattached from the sadness of the losses. Because it's in happiness that I feel my daughter and I can't remember my mother. When I tell their story, when I tell this story, I give them life. That's when they are most present. If I'm happy, Paola is here. Thank you Isabel for your story and for your stories. So much loss in your story Isabel. The choice not to close herself off. Instead, moving with and through all that loss has led to a real fearlessness in her. And with that comes joy. With that comes freedom. Paula-ness.
