I love hearing your words in your voice. Thank you for always being so vulnerable and open. Remember that you’re always doing your best - and your best is ok. Sometimes your best may appear little from the outside. That’s ok. Sometimes your best may be a lot. And that’s ok. Please be kind to you and give yourself the grace that you’ve always given others. Sending love to you and your family.

Thank you for listening, love. I'm not sure if I'm going to continue to use the audio feature for every piece. It feels natural to me to read out loud so it's more of a matter of time and quiet. Although, my son's screeches and laughs in the background wouldn't be such a bad thing haha. Thank you for the encouraging words. I most definitely am doing my best. I am a committed, determined, intentional person, and I am trying. I'm enjoying it too, y'know? Because that's just the thing. I love doing alllll the things, but at the end of the day, there truly aren't enough hours, or maybe more accurately, there isn't enough energy. And as you say, that's okay. Thank you for reading and for sharing. <3

Jessy... It's as if you somehow broke into my heart and stole the words it's been trying to scream. Or, more suitably, haven't had the time scream. I'll have to come back to this, because I've been thinking and yearning to set my intentions and begin some sort of change that feels so clear to me but at the same time completely unattainable - very similar to what I heard you say (I liked listening as I read, and I must say how soothing it was). For now they'll stay stagnant in a note, the one at the top in my Notes app. But soon, I hope. Maybe my first intention is to actually sit down, write through, and set them. I'll be back when I do. Thank you for sharing x

I'm glad to hear that the piece resonated with you, but also, not glad because it's awful to yearn for something and not know how to attain it. I hope a way presents itself. I'd love to hear them when you get them written down. As You know, writing them down can be powerful. If nothing else, it's a good place to start. As always, thank you for reading. Always appreciate your support.
