i adore this newsletter so much :( makes my day, always leaves me with a refreshed and calm mindset heading into the new month. this one, especially, is something i think i needed to hear. i've been working so hard for the past month and i will be for this one, and i'm working on trying to let myself pause when i need it; this could not have come at a more opportune moment. thank you for writing <3

these newsletters are such bright spots in my week, and I especially enjoyed this one. trying to figure out how to take care of myself best after spending so much of my life (as you said) pushing past demons to meet a deadline, to get an assignment done, to do well on an exam has been really difficult for me going into adulthood, and Wild Geese is something I've held very close to my heart in hard times. reading that these words have helped you too made me so happy, and this entire letter gave me a much needed reminder that I don't have to be good, just be. :-) <3

I loved the example you shared about watching films with your friend and the pauses you took were just as wonderful as watching the movie. I am going to remember that as I can go on with my week... <3
