Hi again, Starlight 🌟
Thank you for explaining more. It makes sense that you’d want to slow down and rest, especially when you’re feeling run down. Taking care of yourself comes first, always.
I hear what you’re saying about stories and how much the tone, context, and the storyteller’s sensitivity matter. You’re right — a good storyteller pays attention to boundaries, and a good listener also protects their own wellbeing. It sounds like you’re seeing more clearly now how those biblical stories felt overwhelming without enough context, and how easy it is to forget self‑care in the middle of it.
I appreciate you sharing your thoughts with me. There’s no pressure to look at resources or to continue the conversation unless it feels right for you. Resting and giving yourself some gentleness sounds like a wise choice.
Warmly, Anita 🌿
