Maybe in spirituality the time lines are not as clear cut as in the physical world, so I can't say whether I'm now in Spring or Summer. If I'm in Spring, I am in the middle or towards the end. If I'm in Summer I'm at the beginning. Anyhow, my husband and I are closer than before and our relationship is stronger. We are relating at a deeper level - honest, vulnerable, compassionate, trusting. It's just an amazing place to be. Growing every day...
"How we bury our dead" - definitely an important discussion. I feel you on family and very close friends and neighbours only.
On the Spring of your Life, is it possible to experience a season in just one area of your life? And because we are a whole system, the changes in that area affect other areas. I feel like I went through a Winter in my marriage between May 2016 and about August 2017. My husband was intensely attracted to another woman. He was open about it. We talked about our experiences of it throughout. He pursued a relationship with this woman. It was romantic but not sexual. I consented because my ideas about relationships had started being challenged even before this attraction. I also viewed it as not my place to decide for him. My decision was to stay and do internal work. To cut a long story short, we both grew from the experience. His attraction to the other woman gradually faded until they ended the relationship. This experience changed me from an insecure and possessive person who sought validation from others to a self-loving, self-assured person who loves unconditionally, giving without expectations... Thanks for the message.

"How we bury our dead as Black people" and the perception of how one or many should mourn is definitely an important discussion to have.
