Suicide, anyone?

Children's books on death

Tanja Taljaard and Azriel Re'Shel, writing in 2016, think so. So do I.
In truth, I think we are one...with some familial tension among us on most days...

I've posted this link, with only a quick scan, to save it for us, and to follow some interesting links...
My tribe, however, does not require chanting, incense, beads, shawls, or paint.
Though it is quite possible that any or all of these things might come in handy at one point or another.

Who are We and Why ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Itsa Village is the online presence of a group of women who meet IRL twice a month to talk about aging, living and dying, health, money, funerals, ageism, etc. And to share our joys and sorrows as we experience this life as Women and as Elders, Olders, Crones, or Hags. Along the way, we are claiming and usually redefining these words, for ourselves and others. We've come to understand that we need Community to continue aging as independently as possible. Yes, the capital C Community. So for us, community equals Interdependence which equals a greater freedom than we might manage on our own as time moves on for us all.

Our Rules

What happens in the group stays in the group, including the names of members.
Stay on the subject as much as you/we can. (Sometimes the tangents are valuable; sometimes no.)
Don't offer advice unless it is specifically invited.
Don't interrupt another person.
Speak in the first person as much as possible.

Itsa Village

Itsa Village is a small community of women building relationships and exploring the wonders and pitfalls of aging.

Are We a Tribe?
