Thank you so much for reading! I was chronically I’ll and bed bound for six years with a “mystery illness” which I was alternately told was manopause, anxiety, or depression. It was actually acute chronic pancreatitis.
I had surrendered to being bed-bound and in (dismissed) pain most of the time. Then I figured out what was wrong.
I’m on a healing trajectory after this long dormancy, and I find small dormancies along the way to be a very special and important privacy which allows me to gather potential before I do anything - this is a direct gift if my illness.
I’m glad you have your garden! What a beautiful world to be held by.
I've just read it again knowing more about your experience and it's even more powerful. I really felt the line, 'I’ve learned it’s not nothingness; it is everythingness'. It is a beautiful world to be held by, thank you. Looking forward to reading more of your writing x
What a brilliant piece of writing! Thank you.
