That was truly an inspiring and uplifting post. I only just decided to leave Facebook a few days ago because the amount of hate is ridiculous. It was making me ill and anxious just reading that and I made the decision that I didn’t want to be a part of that. However, I didn’t exactly plan on coming here to Substack. I’m really glad I did and this post sums up exactly why. Humans coming together and nurturing thoughts and ideas. Every artist is looking for this space. Thank you kindly for your efforts to supply us all with it.

What a beautiful human being you are, Andy. I want to read what you have to say because of your passion and expertise, but honestly, at this point, it's because you are among the best of us. This post lifted me right out of the general malaise I fight every day—along with millions of others— just because I live in this country. Thank you for your compassion and humanity. I appreciate you. Rock on, you diamond.

I just ordered the "Snail" book from the library. Always happy to get a recommendation.

Keep mending my friend...! I pray you're 100% very soon! My last bout of Covid in July has lingered. In fact, the brain fog and fatigue are still hanging around. Long Covid? 🤷🏼‍♀️ But as we all know, illness is a great time just to retreat and reflect. Maybe our bodies' way of urging us to take a break from pushing and just be present for awhile.

The book does look like a perfect choice for a rainy day. Ordering it now! Thanks for sharing!💖

So glad to hear you are better, Andy. Keep it going. Don't let the unsubscribed throw you off.

Fall is a season of letting go. It is time to clean house. People come and go, ɓut it isn't a rejection of you. It is what îs within ourselves. You are whole.

And I appreciate you as well.
