Writing is so much easier at times ...it's slower--- allows us to pace what's in our hearts and minds. Also, beautiful song. I was singing it as I was reading.

I hope The Preacher man will find a place in my heart where it can grow tall and sustain those that seek shelter there with it's fruits.

It`s been 🤔37 years, I hope he found humility and forgiveness.

I see now that my comment may have been misinterpreted. I meant it as a tribute to the depth and impact of your piece, not specifically about the preacher man. Your story and words hold such power that I hope to carry their meaning within me, letting them grow into something that sustains.

Thank you for clarifying your intended meaning, my mind went straight to the individual himself. And thank you for the compliment.💕

If I ever get enough money to afford a Pot to piss in I would love to have paid subscriptions with lots of substackers I have come to appreciate and become fond of! 😋

I don`t believe I`ll try and monetize. I have what I need and blessed to share what little I do have with those that I can. I don`t announce the `good deeds` because to me if I need a pat on the back, I didn`t do it for the right reason. One must keep ego humble. I am thankful to those that follow or subscribe but most thankful for comments. To know something, I wrote moved somebody is the only pat I need. I try to resist the urge for such feedback but yes, I too have flaws.
