this is the best writing i read in a long time! it felt like a breath of fresh air. i needed to hear this for the past 4 months, as i was trying so hard to process things without having the capacity to do so. "Prematurely peeling back the layers on the onion of transformation is a recipe for re-traumatization." this part made me feel relieved, annd that it's okay to give ourselves the grace we need, be it by distracting ourselves if that's what helps us. truly, everything you wrote hit home, thank you for your vulnerability and openness.

This is a beautiful piece of writing. An invitation to heal so we can heal others so that we can all heal the world. That’s the why! You make me believe that I’ll find my defiant power to Quit again! Gratitude.
