This resonates in such a good, but foreign way. Like soreness in an accessory muscle I didn't know I had; growth and confusion in equal measure. A lot to think on.
I don't know what to do with these thoughts yet, but as with most good writing, it's always nice to read something that makes me feel less alone. :)
I agree with you, Jonathan. Now I have a lot of time in my hands looking for an occupation which I can put my energy and best efforts to help others ... Looking for a job is a job in itself! But I often found that when I am employed I need time to recharge and re-story myself so that I can offer more. It's not about saying more 'no's but giving 'yes'es of better quality after you take time to gather yourself again ... Does that make sense?
Quite eloquently put. Community is everything right now. It bridges gaps of gender, ethnicity, lifestyle, economics, and station. I read today a powerful quote, I don’t pick friends for what they can do for me but they are doing for others, you are the people you surround yourself with.
Thanks Jonathan! I tend to overcommit and appreciate your thoughts on the problem! Keep up the incredible thoughts!

Well written Jonathan. It's hard to balance the time for others and the time for ourselves. Thanks for sharing.
