Lidia, thank you so much for sharing! And thank you for this paragraph. I have lived through crazy things in my short 38 yrs on this planet. And it was during my darkest times when I found stability in work. Maybe it's because my work is grounded in helping others and it gives me a deep sense of purpose. I have been criticized for this for not "letting myself rest," but I feel more stable when I "do" and help others when I am going through the dark.
I send my prayers to you. Stay strong Lidia.
