Welcome back, and congratulations on accomplishing a year with this newsletter, Mary! Thank you for sharing deeply, authentically, and beautifully. Your incredible words and directions are timely for me. I'm psyched to catch up with you.
Happy Substack Birthday, Mary! Glad you're on the other side of the move. It's A LOT. This post makes me think of the days following my father's stroke. I had lunch with a friend, scheduled before the stroke, and shared the new with her. I was struck by the collision of this normal lunch on a beautiful day, and the fact that no one around me, except for my friend, knew that my family's world had just been turned upside down. Ever since then, I try to remind myself that most of us are a little bit broken, just doing the best we can on any given day. Kindness goes a long way.

Maria, I didn’t know about your dad. I’m so sorry. What a world-shifting moment.
