Thank you for writing this as I could have highlighted the entire story! We are on the same page. I write from my heart and personal experience whenever I feel like it. I veer off on topics I'm passionate about. I'm not here for the money and my validation as a writer is not tied to my stats. So liberating! 🤗 Each of us has to decide why we're here, I think that's a start.
So sorry for you loss.
