Susi, I admire you for writing this because many struggle and feel they have no one to talk to or lean on. We weren’t meant to be alone in times of dispair. Perfect pairing of your words and your selected image. Brava!

<3 I appreciate you saying this, Eugenia! You are so right that so many struggle in their isolation when what we need they need most is to purge with someone who would be willing to help. Thank you for your kind words, dear!

And that is one of the reasons it is sometimes difficult to write about struggles. The emotions tied to them are refreshed in my mind, and experienced. But I’m grateful that it is fleeting. Thanks so much for reading, Sadje!

Very true Susi, the things we have gone through in the past, come to the present when we share them.
