Sons and Daughters was a teenage ritual for me after school...How amazing. Love this bittersweet writing and the idea that frustrations and tenseness can come from fear of losing love. Thanks for sharing.

Oh my god, was it!!!! How lovely to hear that - I’ll tell mum. That’s a great way of putting it; that frustrations can come from fear of losing love. Thank you so much for reading and for telling me!!!

One of my favourite things about my Mom is that she doesn't believe in an afterlife but is also afraid of ghosts. She legitimately does not think anything happens to our "souls" when we die. She thinks we simply cease to exist. But she is terrified of ghosts. I don't ask her to think about this to hard, mostly because I love it about her so much and think it's sort of adorable.
