I hesitate to send you a heart for this one because you don't need my (or anyone's) approval to write. But my heart goes out to you as you grapple with big life issues.
I feel the heaviness of all of this, Liz. And I’m glad you have written about it. I enjoy your writing so much, and I’ve missed it while you’ve been taking break.
You are one of the Substack publications I recommend to my readers, and I’ve been noticing how many of them are now also subscribed to you, for your storytelling, for the way you sift through the hard things and mine the gold from them.
Take good care of yourself, of course, and I hope that involves saying yes to your blog!
“Nobody sends you hearts for doing your morning pages or making lasagna or checking on a friend. You have to do that for yourself.” Ironically, I am out here liking the heck out of this.
Welcome back Liz, as I have told you before, love your posts and pictures. And I do applaud you for coming back and realising that the last months were a bit much of work and not so much for you. But hey, life is a journey and we all go up and down. For me the last months were the other way, to much enjoying life, to less work and income... Which also is a very interesting journey ;-). So happy to have you back here!
Feel like we all need a list of the things that we love doing just for us and you have to colour in a heart next to it when you’ve done it...self-emoji validation! Loved hearing from ‘the thin place’ Liz
