May God bless all who are integrated into Mothering Spirit - writers and receivers alike! You have long been one of my most treasured writers, Laura. Your stories and heart woven so beautifully through your words. Thank you for expanding and deepening this gift you gave birth to 13 years ago. And every birth you’ve labored for and loved since.
“May he grant you your heart's desire, and fulfil all your plans!” Psalms 20:4
Laura - I so often recommend your work to others. This new endeavor sounds like a next level effort and I’m eager to see what is coming. That said, your response to to the criticism of a reader who suggested your writing somehow wounded her by ignoring a different angle is evidence of a humble heart. However, when I find a writer’s view doesn’t resonate I don’t fault someone for knowing what they know and not knowing what I know. I find this critique to be pretty typical of our current context in which “the chip on my shoulder is your problem not mine”. I hope you can shake off any lingering “guilt” about representing your own POV. Your authenticity and perseverance are much appreciated
