Inspiration: Exile happens. Tough transitions and changes can make us feel like we have been exiled from the life we have come to know. The ultimate feeling of exile can come as we approach the final days of a change when denial has been defeated, when anger has burned hot, when avoidance is not an option, when bargaining time has passed and acceptance is the only path forward.
I wondered what that would be like when we face the final transition out of this world and into the next. So, with those thoughts in mind. I wrote~~EXILE.
