Say whatever is on your heart or mind that you feel comfortable sharing, Darlene! I’ve always enjoyed our private conversations and never found you to be tongue tied. You have a lot of wisdom to share. I know it is harder to do that on the internet, because we can’t control who will see what we post or how they will respond, and hate-filled personal attacks are more common online than in person. Still, sharing my personal struggles online has helped me connect with people.
I have a friend who passes homeless people often on her commute into Minneapolis. She keeps a stash of ziplock bags full of useful items like toothbrush and toothpaste, soap, washcloth, etc. in her car and gives them one of them.
I would like to be able to connect with people however am often tongue tied knowing what to say, any suggestions anyone!

That’s a wonderful idea, Joanney. I have friends who do similar things, like keep a stash of granola bars to hand out.
