Hello CS,

Thank you for such a generous message. It’s times like this when you realise the beauty of the internet, which can often be lost in the sea of social media cruelty. Tiny Buddha is a wonderful and sincere community, and I’m really grateful I have found this space. In many ways, adulthood seems to be a constant lesson in overcoming one’s anxieties. The stakes are raised as our livelihoods depend on our capabilities, so it’s no surprise that your work as a teacher and artist brings a lot of stress. I’d love to speak to you about the book, and if you could offer any help or support, that would be much appreciated. I love to connect with people, and I truly understand what it’s like to feel cut off, even when there are so many people around. Please send your email address, and we can take it from there.
