I know you are facing something serious in your life. Each of us is. There is something going in in your life that feels overwhelming, scary and out of control. When bad things happen, it sucks the wind right out of you. It dims the light in your life and not much really seems to matter. You often times end up in survival mode. Survival mode is the state of being where you only do what is necessary. You end up spending the rest of the time you used to use living, in your head, thinking about what is going on now. You sleep as much as you can, you avoid social contact and you just go through the motions. You are surviving. Life is changed dramatically and you aren't sure if it ever will find a new normal. If you are deep in the darkness, you may not even care if you find your way out of the pit. Grief, disbelief and that anxious sense that you will never be the same can be so overwhelming that you can't begin to imagine laughing, enjoying something or, dare I say, resuming faith in something or hope for your future. In any situation, be it a health crisis, death, loss of employment, divorce, or any life changing event, grief and depression are common. There is a cycle of grief which has five stages- denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance. Each stage is an important part of your journey. After you have lived with your life changing event long enough to accept that it is a reality, you have because they bought the BS that their lives were ruined. an opportunity to simply Their course was shifted survive it or overcome it. and they didn't have the Surviving will keep you fortitude to reset their living day to day with a sails. sense of loss and hopelessIf each of us could ness.

Of the many creatures lurking at the bottom of the ocean, ones that can bring fear and intrigue to stories of the ocean are the ones that have an octopus as the main character. They can grow to be so large and menacing, wrapping their many tentacles around their unsuspecting victims. Stories about these mysterious creatures were the focus of a recent session of the Cottonwood Community Library's Preschool Storytime, but these stories and facts showed the octopus to be a loving and nurturing member of the ocean life.They were also found to have very welldeveloped brains. Parents and children sat quietly and listened as Mari Ennis-Applegate, one of the two facilitators of the Preschool Storytime, regaled the crowd in attendance with fascinating and sometimes humorous stories about Courtesy Photo by Gayle Harrington Jeremiah Mitchell, 4, of Cottonwood, along with his childcare provider, Karen Rice, create an arts and crafts picture of an octopus and other sea creatures at a recent Cottonwood Community Library Storytime.

The consensus at the end of Storytime was that an octopus is an interesting and yet often misjudged character who loves and cares for its young. As for the question of octopuses or octopi? It turns out that either is correct for more than one octopus. Preschool Storytime is on vacation for a few weeks while families transition to summer vacation mode. The Cottonwood Library Summer Storytime program will begin on June 19 and run through Aug. 7 where the theme of "Let's Go to the Circus," will be delved into with fun themes and ideas that revolve around a circus just waiting to be explored. A summer reading program for the schoolaged children will be available. For more information contact the Cottonwood Community Library at 347-4818.
