Thank you, Jonesy! I love this article, so validating and normalizing! It was a great reminder. My default is "No one is there for me, no one cares, no one knows. I have to do this all by myself." So good to read her words and realize that it's okay to need others - I'm only human after all. I'm just getting in touch with the tender need I have for connection.

Thanks Jonesy for the most recent blog post. It made me cry but in a good way! :lol: It's something I've been told lots already but this is written in such a way as to genuinely make me think and feel. Thank you, it is awesome.

With much caring
