You asked about comments on self-building...I feel very blessed knowing I am never alone. I am grateful that my grandmother taught me as a four year old something which made me happy. She said, God loves you. How did i as a child know the meaning of love, but it really made me feel secure to know that I was loved. Know that our Father-Creator made us to love us...and you are much loved, too. You are honestly expressing yourself...and providing a place for others to think, reflect and respond to your writing.

Thank you Barbara, and I love the memory you just shared! I have also been thinking about my childhood a lot. Thank you.

Our family and others in our lives as children...teach us more than we will ever learn in school. Children are like sponges absorbing information from everyone in their lives; along with everything they see. They are far more aware than adults think they are. I said to myself as a child, "I never want to forget what it feels like to be a child."

is your substack still going? Kind of funny, when I responded to rating your poetry today...it said that It wasn't available.
