The unquenchable urge as a black woman to shut down and shut out the world when the noise of life becomes too loud… I felt Ericka in ALL THE WAYS! But to be seen and loved by someone that notices you in your sunken place, meets you where you are and just loves you into the out instead of dragging you?! Sad girlies deserve this type of care, love, attention and affection. When you’re always the “strong friend” and notice and cater to everyone’s pain, but your own goes unnoticed, untended to… This short read was healing. Jonah deserves to be SWALLOWED UP!
