I’m so sad somebody understands. I’m so glad somebody understands. Wishing you all the best, Kat! I’ve got a postcard on my desk I’ve been meaning to send you.
Aw, thank you Lindsey! That is hilarious you were going to recommend The Great Turning podcast. It’s gem, isn’t it? By which I mean it leaves me sobbing alone in my kitchen whilst listening. I want to hug Joanna Macy.
Even though we’ve never met, it’s so comforting to know somebody understands.
Wow, so many moments of resonance! So many similar thoughts and feelings (I’m 30) especially around ageing and what this feels like. Living in Australia I rarely feel unsafe but having lived in upstate New York I remember that feeling! I had a few moments… a man wondering around an Aldi car park with a shotgun and also having a knife pulled on me when catching a bus. Both times I came away fine but I feel for that undercurrent of general lack of safety. Such a vulnerable share x
Ema, again with the direct line to my head and heart.

Sentiments returned Ema. And I have a letter addressed to you!
Same. 💔❤️🩹
"Is it 'enough' to love what is in front of me right now, if that is all I can manage"?
So many of your stories and experiences in this post resonate with me, but these words especially.
God is in the paradox. God is change.
After reading your last letter I was going to recommend the great turning podcast! So glad you are already listening. It is so much to hold.
Ema, this was just…ah, I don’t have the words but I have all of the feelings.
