  1. Thank you. That’s it, just thank you.

  2. Thank you Sally. This was among the most comforting messages I’ve received. It has resonated deeply in the past few hours and will continue to do so in the days to come.

  3. Thank you so much Louisa. It was written in the wee hours of election night as I was looking for positive path to take. I am glad it resonated. And thank you to all the emailed.
