Soul of Flames: Understanding Agony & Its Role in Eternal Healing

Precious memories are often painful to remember. Working through those moments creates the paths necessary for healing that lasts a lifetime. This zine examines Cherise’s personal struggles with the five stages of grief in relation to all aspects of the community. Wading through Denial, Anger, Bargaining, and Depression for the past two years was no small feat - as this essay will show you. The actualization of the final stage of grief, Acceptance, left Cherise with one thought; though there is blood on the floor, the Blood still works.
