Wow. This hit like a quiet truth I didn’t know I was ready to hear. “Groaning is the beginning” feels like a whole philosophy—messy, human, and real. Thank you for reminding me that change doesn’t have to roar. Sometimes it just sighs first.

I’m really moved by your words, “a quiet truth I didn’t know I was ready to hear” captures the exact tenderness this was meant to hold. Yes, change often begins in a whisper, a sigh, a groan we didn’t realize we were holding in. I’m honored this spoke to you. Thank you for sharing this beautiful reflection. It deepens the conversation in all the right ways.
