Reading this a year later and so glad it was re-posted. Your experiences resonate and leave me feeling more connected to the greater whole.

Read the first part of this early this morning, and came back for the rest just now. I’m so glad I did, you know that you speak to, and for, your readers. It is for us to turn over the words and ideas, and then we catch a truth about ourselves. Your new book is a push and pull and dig, isn’t it?

Beautiful - do you read The Lunar Dispatch on here? That’s all about heartbreak this month too 🤍

Your writing is so clearly meant for me to digest, sometimes voraciously, sometimes like a delicate bird. But always, always right on the mark. I have been going through the most challenging period of my life learning to love with Long Covid and this piece was today’s salve. Thank you, dear human.
