Thanks for sharing this wee toolkit, Janelle. Handle with care is such a perfect sentence. It can be read as a command but also as an invitation.

This is so beautiful and soothing. It reminds me of the John O’Donohue quote “be excessively gentle with yourself”. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, ideas and insights. I love ‘handle with care’ and I often think about how I can soften just a little bit more xx

Ooh I need to look this up. Thanks so much Lyndsay.

No matter how we're feeling it can never do any harm to offer ourselves and others more softness.

I really think it's fellow writers on SS like yourself who are helping me to take this on board. x

My pleasure Janelle. And wow I am so glad to be within a community here that you feel is offering softness. Perhaps a necessary antidote to some other parts of the internet etc! xx
