I don't usually comment, but this is one of the best things I've read, maybe ever. I've never been lied to in the way you have, but I felt all those different scenes viscerally through the power of your words. I had to take a big breath myself at the end. You have a beautiful gift and I'm so glad you are using it and sharing it despite everything.
I love the idea of setting the scene for the hard things that remain unnamed or impossible to explain in my mind. Thank you, Katie. Your words are like good medicine.
Of everything of yours that I've had the pleasure of reading, this one, THIS ONE, screams from the rooftops. I don't know if that makes sense. But it's all I can think to say. And I truly hope it helped you to put it down on paper for us to witness as it will help those who read it. <3
There has not once ever been a time I’ve read your words and not felt something- like deep in my soul. You have a gift with words, a gift to help people feel seen and known in their own stories, just by writing yours. While I may not relate entirely here, “it seems like your life cannot hold the weight of your dreams” will live in my mind for a while.
I don’t know how you so amazingly put into words each thing my soul has felt as I also went through a loss of marriage and seeing my former spouse as a total stranger to me now. Thank you for being vulnerable enough to put it into words. The way you write is incredible. I hope you keep sharing your gift with anyone who finds it.
Katie, this is BEAUTIFUL. The emotional world can be so invisible that when you put words to it, it DOES give weight, it gives lines, it gives colors. Bravo!
I can’t leave this without commenting on how I have never read something like this before. It stings and uplifts and makes me want to live more abundantly. What a gift you are to the world. Thank you.
Katie, this is so incredibly powerful and resonates so deeply with me. Your ability to not only capture the feelings and inner power struggle but to truly allow the reader to understand and feel it.....it’s astonishing! Thank you, for putting an understandable and recognizable, but still unnamed face to feelings so many can resonate with during the most impossible journeys. Simply incredible!
I resonate with this so much. Thank you. I'm going to think thru how I can give a scene to the way it feels in my situation. I appreciate this so much, thank you.
I’m sorry that it does resonate, Karly ❤️ But finding some words for it has been like finding a place for the hurt, and that’s helped a little. Hugs to you!
