Oh man—I could pick up the phone and call you. I want you to hug you and say: I’m sorry you went through this and it’s all so understandable why and how you feel what you do. No one who knows you, loves you, respects you would judge you—because we all make mistakes. The repeated one?—yes those too.

Truth is we are each unique—our backgrounds, personalities, circumstances and the needs we have—just different.

I wish a friend or parent was near to lend you good advice…but then again—would you have still made up your mind? We can never know.

All I know is you’re a beautiful human being who loves her children. You and no mother wants harm to come to our children —and I wish I could take away the guilt…but I know that’s impossible.

I feel it too—in my own circumstances—so it’s well understood.

I do hope everyday moving forward is one of joy and peace and that you enjoy your life as you authentically wish to.

Btw it saddens me that you and Leonard have shared you don’t want to write. Ugh.

I don’t even know what to say. But I do live by: live and let live.

Just know your writing is appreciated and will be missed.

I think it’s powerful you wrote and published this. Last year you were no where near to writing this vulnerable. So I’m frustrated that this is now the time you’re pulling back….

I applaud both Liberty and you for responding…writing is so therapeutic. And you teach us some important lessons here…💚

Biggest hug!
—and please keep writing! 😜—couldn’t hold back!!!!☺️😉😘
