A critical part of our humanity is the fulfillment we get from helping others. This necessitates that we, in return, allow others their own fulfillment.
As someone who’s chronically ill and has been out of remission for the past year and a bit, meaning I have hella symptoms all the time and it’s like a permanent flu vibe, this was nice to read even though it’s not the same context. I felt seen. It also gave me like wow yeah, the emotional part of being sick is so worthy of being explored in writing. Thank you for writing, making me feel less alone, and I hope you have a speedy recovery and that you have many many crackers. Perhaps even Boujee crackers.
Beautiful. Seeing our child outside of ourselves is so helpful. For me, at least, it makes it easier to take care of myself. The challenge, however, is that unless like you at the moment, I’m in a really bad spot, I don’t notice her 😔

Absolutely beautiful Julia. I relate to this so deeply. Sending you healing, restful vibes.
