Whewwww. This one felt like it reached through the screen and handed me a glass of water.

The title alone already said, “I see you.” But the way you named the whisper of shame that trails interdependence — yes. That shadow voice that says, “Don’t ask. Don’t need. Don’t be too much.” I’ve heard it. I’ve obeyed it. I’ve betrayed myself for it.

What hit me hardest was this: “This is time and permission capitalism will not grant. This is time and permission we must take.” That’s the whole sermon.

Thank you for weaving a space where faith, fatigue, grief, and generosity can all sit at the same table. For reminding us that saying yes to support isn’t weakness — it’s choreography. It’s worldbuilding.

Anton!!! This reflection 🫂 Yes, yes, yes! "Saying yes to support isn’t weakness — it’s choreography". That's right. That's it.
