Thank you for sharing the importance of having something to rely on during tough days, so beautifully written! I love your poem and the image of dropping a pebble in a lake. That's how I will view resilience in the future. Being in nature whenever I can is definitely a big part of my resilience garden 💚

I love your poem, Dana! So beautifully put! 🩷 It really resonated with me. As did this sentence: "Sometimes, it’s about finding shelter, allowing yourself to rest, and growing quietly, in your own time." I couldn't agree more!

I'm so glad that it resonated with you—growth doesn’t have to be loud or rushed. Those quiet, restful moments often hold the most meaningful shifts. Thank you again for sharing this; it’s a beautiful reminder of why I write 💖
