Thank you for such a beautiful comment. I’m happy this resonates with you. We’re not a big “hallmark” birthday family so I wrote him a love letter instead and sharing personally with my audience was a healthy bi-product to give others hope for a long future. Community isn’t so local anymore so younger gens especially sometimes benefit from the wisdom collected from life experiences.

Thank you. Seth was bullied terribly and I didn’t know how bad it was until much later

I feel for you, my older brother suffered from epilepsy, and it was tough for him to survive school. Sending you much empathy and love ✨💖🤗

Thank you, Cori! I really love and resonate with what you share. I wish younger me (I turn 50 this year) had heard and heeded your advice. After two divorces, and a lot of self-discovery and growth, I feel deeply the truth of what you share. You hit on the main threads of life together: Authenticity/being real, emotions, plans, hopes, finances, touch, coming toward one another, growing with each other, and gratitude (among other things). Great stuff! Thank you! 🫶🏽

P.S. I either accidentally hit unsubscribe or was unsubscribed by the tech glitch that's going on 🤦‍♀️ Fixed it.

Thank you. I’m glad you liked it. About half my work so far is heartfelt outpouring of self discovery or a love letter to others. And I’m really thankful your subscription is working again because your such a wonderful addition to this neighborhood. I’d be thrilled to do a collaborative writing some time. Happy whatever day, happy everyday!

Hey Cori, man it’s been so real since we got to my mom’s on Tuesday! My hubby arrived super sick (never sick!) and now my brother is sick and today his dog collapsed and they took her to emergency vet. We are now praying it’s not bone cancer. She’s a nine year old rescue lab and about the sweetest (aren’t they all?) Oh, and it was mom’s 88th birthday today! Mom and I are good thankfully and have been taking care of everyone. Soooo, I’m slow here! lol. Thank you for your kindness. I look forward to reading more of your stories. I appreciate the heartfelt ones, as you might know! Being here, writing, has saved my soul. I’d love to do a collaborative with you! We’ll have to think on what it will be about? and for sure, Happy Every Single Day We Get. Amen. Sending you a big hug. oxox
