Oh I'm holding your hand, sitting there in my robe with my plastic bag! All the feelings. I hope you do something nice for yourself :) Thank you for following along, you are not alone.

Thank you for this lovely story. Making oneself vulnerable to a kind stranger sometimes has remarkable results. Today I went to a group session on managing anxiety for individuals touched by cancer (my 6 year old grandson has a recurrence of stage 4 cancer). My tears flowed freely when it was my turn to tell why I was there. It felt strange to cry in front of strangers yet the support and kindness I received made it feel like the most natural thing in the world. Vulnerability is perhaps becoming my super power.
