A host shares candid morning reflections and reminders about grief and love, citing quotes that grief shows the depth of love and that it must be lived with rather than simply worked through, offering compassionate context and practical check-ins.
T. Brown, Sarah, how are you guys this morning? T North Speak Wonder crew coming into the house. Here in the Cadre sphere, we're always going to give you as. real of energy as we can muster up. Why? Because that's the reminder that we most often need.
Grief is for some of life. Love is for all. Kelly Gross Clogs says that grief is the evidence of love. Nora McInerney says grief isn't something that you work, work through. Give yourself what you need today.
Well, hey, good morning, Cadre. How are we doing? How are we doing today? Yeah, good. Now, I obviously don't know what you said to the answer the question, but if you said, ah, it's a really hard day, or if you said, wow, it's a really great day, I was like, good. What I mean by that, good is if you're doing this day, there's something. There's something that you got going for you. And we will be those reminders. T. Brown, Sarah, how are you guys this morning? T North Speak Wonder crew coming into the house.
Here in the Cadre sphere, we're always going to give you as. As real of energy as we can muster up. Why? Because that's the reminder that. That we most often need. Sometimes it's positive, sometimes it's. I'm just gonna say it. Sometimes it's negative. Sometimes it's makes sense, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it's clear, sometimes it's muddy. Sometimes you see us in moments when we have our stuff together, and sometimes it looks like we are disheveled to the gods. I think that's the magic that we have here.
So to each of you, I say, hey, I'm glad I'm here. I'm glad you're here. I know what I know, and I care about you. I still think that that formula really, really brings some. Some magic to the room. T. North, you had a fall. Ugh. Make sure you get some. Some heat, some ice, some movement, some stillness, whatever you need today. Oh, and Speak Wonder is burning that midnight oil, drinking that coffee to get to that writing deadline. That's awesome. Good stuff. Good morning, Jen. Nice to see you. Right here in the Cadre Sphere on Fridays, we often talk about, right, the idea of losing, the idea of grieving.
And I always like offering these two reminders. Some kind of a squeaky wheel on every day, right? There's things that I say, no matter what day of the week it is as that reminder of. And my two reminders, the things that stick with me in the grief and loss space is number one, Kelly Gross Clogs says that grief is the evidence of. Of love, Right? That you will love for. For a lifetime, forever, and you will grieve for a segment of your life, right? Grief is for some of life. Love is for all. And then buddy, Nora McInerney says that grief isn't something that you work, work through and something you learn how to move forward with.
Yeah. Rough and tumbly. You know, the reason why I always come back to the. To these Squeaky wheels is because the things that we experience keep coming back, too. You know, I often think. Think on Fridays when I get ready for, you know, this Cadre today. I go, okay, who or what have I lost in the last week? Last weekend, as some of you know, I was artistic directing a show, and in that show, one of the. One of the participants, you know, referenced Sly Stone, musician. And then all of a sudden, he passed away.
This week, my mom got to go see the Beach Boys with my niece and my great niece, so that's her granddaughter and her great granddaughter a couple weeks ago. And then Brian Wilson died this week. As I often talk about, I'm a big Muppets guy and Muppet 3D Vision down in. At Disney World. It closed down this week. These memories come back. Where you go, it's like, oh, what's the. Like, what's happening when. When either people. Excuse me, that was two. I don't think I have a third one, though. Like, we often think in the cosmos, it's like, oh, what's happening when.
When a lot of loss happens in succession. But in reality, it's the loss that we are aware of. This world is constantly shifting where energy is and how energy is existing. And sometimes we get those extra reminders that, yeah, everything has a beginning, everything has an end, everything has the highs and the lows. But my little tidbit for you today is whenever you get a reminder of the thing you're working on or the thing you struggle with or the thing you don't want to be reminded of, kind of have those things that you come back to again and again, right?
I have my Kelly idea, and I have my Nora idea. I have ideas that y' all have given me. So what are those things that you come back to in those moments? And today, as to each day, there's a. There's an energy or a focus in the Cadre sphere. And this month, we also have that overlaying theme of balance, giving yourself that little moment of wow. When I experience X, that's when I Y. You know, like T. North, you fell down. When you are injured, when you're less than 100%, what do you do? What are those things that make you go, ah, every time that this happens, here's the thing that I do.
Your body and your spirit appreciate things like that. You having those things where you can go, here's how I tell myself that I am on my side, in my corner and ready to support whatever this day brings, y' all. It's a rainy day here in Minnesota. I don't know what's going on where you are, but in the world in which you live, Give yourself what you need today. Y' all have a good one. It.
