Excellent way of thinking about it, ladybug. I like that cart analogy.
I can relate, too. I've not posted very much on this board in awhile, and it bothered me. I couldn't figure out what it was about. Recently, I thought that it might be that the discussions are interesting, complex, and deep here, and I don't always feel up to or that I have the energy to respond in a "good enough" manner. And I want to. So I guess I read and then avoid posting.
Maybe we need a code or buzz word to use when we are reading and caring but not up to posting. Maybe something like "Here" "Listening" or something else. That might help in both directions. We can show we care and those who posted know they are being heard.
What do y'all think?
