I'm reading this just before writing the piece in my head, for today about helping my daughter give away all her baby clothes and equipment yesterday, which was very emotional for me -- and the morning after watching the last bit of The Good Place, which really puts one's place in the universe into perspective. If you haven't seen it, I recommend you watch it -- the last series is the most philosophical, but the first bit is the most fun. See it all, knowing that the "fork" jokes will give way to some genuinely moving and thoughtful viewing.
