oh. my. goodness.

I'm the same way - I think our sad is a beautiful gift because I can FEEL it in another person, even if they hide.

I've often been asked "how did you do that?" when everyone else is kinda wandering around - smiling - joking - under the mask i see and feel that pain. tangibly.

because I know it. and i can see it in the eyes and feel it through my body.

I hated the pain I went through - but what a silver lining to be able to help heal others - right???

@galenkp and I were just talking about this the other day... how toxic facebook is and how much HAPPIER we are without it. I deleted mine in 2017. (i needed to reactivate it for a short season for something... that ended up not even being worth the irritation LOL) it went right back on deactivation hahahahaha

I'm so glad that you came to my post to connect with me - and now here I am coming to connect with you and I'm already addicted.

can't wait to read more from you - and yes.... I'm the same way about the sad. We don't have to display it to everyone but we don't have to hide it from everyone either. In the right moments, being genuine and vulnerable connects hearts beyond the sad. love this post :)
