Wow! these "You're thankful for finally deciding to.." are so great..I'm going to print it out and hang it in my office. "wine o'clock" lol! and all the writers who stop resisting the urge to write... so fantastic. And those who took some time to figure out what they want to do, how they want to contribute, even if it is unconventional.. All these people who are using their talents for good.. to share their gifts... I just can't! So inspiring and the perfect message to share for thanksgiving. Thanks Kara!
Thank you so much for reading, Claudine! I am so glad you appreciate them as much as I do. Truly amazed by the creativity and persistence and reflection of all these "newsletter friends."
I'm so glad you liked them! Just making sure -- these were all written in by readers; I wouldn't be able to do all this myself in a year, not by a long shot!
To the hospital chaplain commenter: I just did that! Left a teaching career and am now a full time hospital chaplain. I’d love to be a resource or thought partner as you explore this path! 🙏

I’m so glad!! I just didn’t want to take credit for everyone else’s hard work!

Wow! Love that synchronicity! I will include this in tomorrow's newsletter and hope they respond! Thank you, Leslie.

Well, I’m not on social media besides Substack, which I’m newly figuring and fiddling. Does this work to connect here? https://substack.com/profile/11370138-leslie?invite
