Orla, firstly thank you for reading and providing a thoughtful response. It is always a pleasure to receive and read your comments.
I respectfully admire your strength of conviction and turning to your faith.
I completely agree with understanding your Why. I think it was Nietzsche who said, words to effect, "If you know your why, you can endure any how."
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about writing, it did not occur to me to think about it as a redirection, but it makes absolute sense.
I am adjusting and redirecting my efforts into discovering and crafting my message. I think writing will always be part of it, but maybe not in the way I previously thought.
Orla you shared a few insights about your message, pivoting and the realisation of your goal. I am intrigued, but know you will share when ready.
For now sending best wishes and an abundance of joy and happiness, my friend. Let's do the work.
