Little Gerda Goes Forward with Courage and Safety

[Gerda]

Cardinal, Scout, Eagle (also Sage, May and you other new ladies) -- Thank you so much for being my friends here. I was thinking that in my first couple years round these parts, I was not close to many women on the boards. I don't know if it was where I was in my journey (e.g., lonely for a man or wanting to believe men could be kind, etc) or just how things played out, but it is really nice now to have women friends here and get that perspective and support alongside the guys (who I still value so much obviously!). It's definitely a different type of friendship and I am very grateful for it! I will post again before Lent starts but just wanted to tell you that, esp as usually the Lent thing ends with me posting much less often til the next crisis.

Wouldn't it be so nice if we could all meet for coffee instead?!
