Catherine my dear,
You have created a safe place for us to fall. Some of us have fallen and are resting there. Some of us are quiet so as not to disturb the fallen.
For some of us, reaching out is tough. For me, someone reaching back can be scary. I will take your hand, then let go, then take it again. It is not personal, it is the way I was raised.
Being here IS a classroom. For me the lesson is to develop a trust in humanity. To learn that there ARE safe people in the world.
You cannot hold yourself responsible for the rise and fall of the issues that everyone faces/is facing/will face.
You unlocked the classroom door and let us all in.
That gesture, at least for me, is huge.
