I once went through an unhealthy time in my life similar to yours. Emotionally fatigued, panic attacks, underweight. During that time I read The Secret Garden and was inspired by how the characters grew and tended to each other just like the flowers in the garden they found. Since then I’ve learned how to set boundaries and take better care of myself. I’ve grown so much stronger but it’s easy to get so caught up in that and then disregard the softness we need in the heart as well. Your writing about feminine softness and strength is hitting home for me and as a fellow Christian I want to thank you and encourage you to keep writing and keep taking care of yourself like a beautiful walled garden.
Oh wow, so happy to hear this spoke to you! Thank you Lauren🤍
