Episode 7. A Grief Observed
It's easy to list all the ways singleness is hard. Society either complains about them or makes a mockery of them. I sit down with my friend Heather, and we name some of them because you cannot heal what you do not name.  The hard parts of singleness matter, so they must be properly grieved.
