I'm glad to hear you're going to keep posting. Keep in the back of your head that most readers are silent, but they are there and waiting for your words, especially on the topic you write about.

This means a lot, Dee. Thank you.

I've actually screenshot this and will use it as motivation to continue if I ever (again) feel like giving up.

Thank you again and happy new year to you too.

Bravo Roscoe! Love the new name and so happy you’re continuing here. Being a sensitive guy is a strong indication of character ... as is your willingness to be vulnerable. As I’ve found with grief, writing is healing in so many ways! Keep up the great work; yours is a refreshing voice here on Substack.

Thank you, Joan. I appreciate your kind words here. And I agree with you, writing about the grief of losing my Mum, etc. has been healing and hopefully helpful for others who have suffered similarly.

I got paid today, but this made my day even better. Thank you! I’m sensitive and emotional too. I think that’s our superpower in a world where everyone is wearing a mask. Looking forward to more time with you.
