Very thoughtful piece. I have always measured my writing on the comments I get from readers. Not on sales of books or views on a website. We live in a society that measures success with the elements of capitalism. How wrong is that? Onward.
Ah, yes! Capitalism is great for trading goods. It's not so great for helping us to see each other & connect in meaningful ways. The dialogue in response to a piece is lovely, I agree. Little points of light.

This pierced my heart today. Thank you for writing it - I needed it.
Thanks for reading, Summer! I feel like this is a reminder that I need to return to again and again throughout life.
Many good ideas are expressed in this piece.
Thanks for reading, Susan. This time of year is such an excellent time to take stock of the messages we're sold v. our true values. Much love.
Love back at you, Jen.
