Descansos are the symbols that mark a death. Right there, right on that spot, someone's journey in life halted unexpectedly. Something happened there that altered that person's life and the lives of other persons forever. You can make Descansos by taking a look at your life in your visual journal and making a time-line of your life. Mark the places where your life changed, starting from infancy and then when you have finished look at your time-line and write an extended piece. When Jillian Leslie wrote I Hate Turning 50 she made descansos and underwent a transformative Writes of Passage. Share her journey and consider recording your own.
