I’m a relatively new music therapist working in hospice and I really relate to your experience. Thank you so much for your vulnerability in sharing something I have trouble even naming at times. I’m so often caught in that uncertainty about how to connect or remain present when I’m not getting a clear sense of connection. Sometimes I’m more comfortable with that uncertainty and other days it feels immensely heavy.
Thanks Timothy, yes, I relate to all of that. For me, I do keep going back to just being present. There is so much in that, simply being present with someone.
Even though there is a disclaimer, the emotions and are real and heartfelt. Sometimes we just don’t know the story behind the person.

Absolutely, it can be such a powerful gift
So so true... Thanks Janet.
