You've taken your strengths from self-harm as a form of preservation to recovery. The work is endless and thankless at times, maintenance requiring near superhuman abilities. *Cape does not enable user to fly. :) You soar in spirit and beauty, Sister C.I have tears in my eyes as I contemplate what you shared this year; what you've endured. Sending love and my best wishes for the blessings you've more than earned, for the blessing you are, and the hope you embody. Peace be with you. ox, Grace
you've been a constant source of support, encouragement, and most importantly validation. Your timely sentiments, I want to express, that yes, words, your words in particular AND most ideally the meaning and hugs they provide, can and do save lifes, lift spirits, and are a rare precious gem to be showcased.
They glisten, as too, do my eyes, when I allow myself to take in, even if only momentarily, the hope and love they provide. All my best to you dear friend. Please continue your heartfelt journey and look forward to unending glee. Signed, Sister C.
Hugs. Thank you, can't tell you how much your reply means to me. And so we move mindfully forward as best we can with humility, tenacity, forgiveness and hope - day to day, moment to moment because our well being requires nothing less. Good company helps. Happy holidays and all the best in the new year. G
