arabella Ella: she crashed 4 or 5 times or more so far
Wol Euler: I think she's given up
Alfred Kelberry: often it's hard to share with someone who hasn't been through what you have, but they found a way to connect them with civilians creating a safe container, as they said
arabella Ella: seems so
arabella Ella: sounds good idea alfie
arabella Ella: and interesting to hear it works
Wol Euler nods.
Alfred Kelberry: ata, it's been ona closed sim, but the next step is to make an open group where anyone can come and talk
arabella Ella: cool
Alfred Kelberry: i thought a focus on fear could be a common ground for both veterans and civilians. something everyone can relate to.
Wol Euler: ((funny that Mick's heart poofer works already though he is still a gassy cloud))
Alfred Kelberry: and in sharing that it could be healing for both
Alfred Kelberry: yes, lotus from the cloud :)
