Godspeed Kathryn and thanks for this sensitive, insightful post. Does humor help? My 'stack is all humor. I also recommend Garrison Keillor. As for your impediments to writing, know these are shared by all "good" writers, from what I can tell. You are not alone.

I also have often used public writing - blogs and social media - as a way to record life for myself with the bonus that it might connect to others.
Fantastic piece.

That’s a really great way of phrasing it. Thank you.
In truth we read and take in what jumps out at us when it connects. Love these posts. 🌱
Thanks. Yes I think the things we need will find us in that way
