After writing Sarah to praise her blog, she shot back with one of the best e-mails I’ve ever received. Sarah, thank you for your beautifully accurate words of wisdom.
Also, thank you for your more than kind words pertaining to my post about Kate. It is so nice to hear how connected we all are in life. Kids just seem to make the world a better, more manageable place and I am so glad to hear you agree. Thank you ever so much for taking the time to write and reach out, it means the world to me. I feel the more we all find common ground, the less heartache there is in the world. We all carry burdens and ours are more visible, but with that visibility we also have the power to forge connection and allow others to know they are not alone. As I have said many times, pain does not have a hierarchy, but everyone seems to feel alone in his or her pain. I am glad to see you and I are working so hard to change this…just to let people know they are not alone. And not only are they not alone, they can achieve, achieve more than they ever thought possible.
