I feel, in the best way possible, reprimanded. It is my job as a human being to always be growing and looking outside of myself to other peoples experiences for not only for knowledge but empathy, understanding, and to sit there and exist with someone else. To make someone feel heard for the simple act of being there. Of listening. It was a pleasure to be gifted an insight by Rebekah and I already added all of the recommended books at the end to my tbr.
