Abigail, I’m new here, but this piece is meaningful and beautiful. I support the same things you support and started my Substack recently for much the same reason.

I wish that I had the means to contribute to all the writers whose eloquence I’m appreciating. I wish they all had the means to support me! (while my Substack is free, my husband and I publish books and produce awesome audio and video courses.) Alas, resources are limited. But I did at least want to offer you encouragement and thank you for writing.
