From a mum, trying her best to care for her angry and anguished neurodiverse teen, thank you. Your words and reading really touched me. I needed that cry.

Thank you Josie. I didn't know the story, so discovering it for the first time through your words was beautiful. It really resonated for me having spent this year, along with others, caring for my husband, til the end of his life. And now processing what the cost of that care has been to me, as well has recovering from the challenges of relationships with other carers. Glad to know that St Kevin experienced all those emotions too. It wasn't and isn't easy and I couldn't have done other.

I am new to Bimblings, love the St. Kevin story and loved your version---went to Glendalough in Ireland where he built his 'cell' of privacy and devotion. It is a special place, in a country that is loaded with special places, so thank you for reminding me through your carefully chosen lines.

Thanks Josie. I love your version and your voice. I listen to your story as a meditation.

Yes....I'm managing a daily walk up and down the garden path. And there are blackbirds living nested away at the end of the garden.

It's hibernation time now. May you all enjoy a warm safe nest wherever you be.

Love and blessings y'all.💚
