This is so beautifully expressed. This too has been my experience and something I continue to long for more of authentic relationships with honesty and vulnerability at their centre. Thank you for reminding me of this
Your words and this newsletter are timely as I am preparing my heart to “sit with” a dear friend who recently lost her husband. I’ve been earnestly considering how to bring all that my own griefs have taught me of humility and openness to hear another’s pain. Grace to just be there for her and to be a safe place for her to land.
And your “dragging my feet” article really hit some deep places in my caregiver-for-two-decades heart. Family relationships are complicated. It’s a prayer of mine for God to give me new eyes and plant deeper love into my dutiful heart.
