Thank you for sharing about this, even though it was hard. A side thing - I also am uncomfortable with saying "I'm proud of you" to or hearing it from people I don't know well. I have also recently found the word impressed for this! And I am impressed with you, I know this was hard. I have also struggled with panic recently and trying to remember to eat/sleep it off
Your responding to this just made my heart leap. Reading your words is such a comfort, and now I’m crying little joyful tears.
Thank you for making me feel seen, and for sharing your feelings/thoughts on the word proud! It just feels…intimate, and for me like someone is trying to take responsibility for something I’ve managed on my own.
If my parents say it, I feel comforted. If my best friend says it, I know it’s because she’s actually had something to do with my getting to where I am after 18 years of friendship.
Thank you for witnessing, and for being out in the world. It makes me feel better knowing you and your bunnies exist.
Thank you 💖 When I titled this newsletter I thought maybe I could only write the whimsy. But I do feel like the whimsy I do find, it comes from a real and genuine place, that because I am writing about all the things, the whimsy, when it comes…it shines.
I just got a package in the mail that feels like a book, and I’m hoping it’s yours!
Thank you! I’m so so glad we get to write in parallel here. Your words resonate with me and our emoji spells were helpful and hilarious when I was feeling overwhelmed. 💖
*giggling* I definitely need all the geese right now! I’m waiting to hear back about my gentle request for accommodations and trying not to stress about it.
Thank you Wake for being the most insightful self aware human ever to cross my world. You teach me new facets of me everyday in your writing. You would think that at my age I would be as self aware as a body could be at this ripe age. I take joy and envelop all your wisdom bestowed upon me. Is my honour to learn from you .💖💖💖
I’m grateful that we both are still learning. I love you so very much. This road is easier because you came before me on it and smoothed some of the bits.

I have confidence in your decision. It's important to process. You don't need to be 100% whimsical for me. Hugs.
