The empty chair at the table speaks the loudest this week. The holidays are often marketed as a time of pure joy, but for those of us in the Almaguin Highlands missing a loved one, the lights can feel a little dimmer. It is okay to step away from the festivities if you need a moment of quiet. Grief doesn't take a holiday. We are thinking of you this season.
