Thank you for all of your supportive comments in response to yesterday’s post; you are all so kind. Since I was on a break from my computer when the criticism began, I was forced to pause and wait a few days before responding. As a result, you were spared the nasty, provoking, sharp replies that ran through my mind but did not end up here. Your words encouraged me more than you can know and while I think you are far too generous, I appreciate your kindness. In the midst of it all, I’m struck by how much pain people carry in their hearts and how we are affected by our histories.
Today I am in awe of the brain and its ability to heal — and I have a story to illustrate it.
