		<description><![CDATA[Thank you Candace. I gave this a good slow nod because:
- I&#039;ve been there and back a few times.
- I&#039;ve seen other people go there, and I wish I&#039;d been more compassionate and helpful to them. We need to reach out to each other.
- I constantly have to remember to do the work. It isn&#039;t easy, but it got easier.
Many blessings on your journey as you help make it okay to talk about this stuff!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[well said Candace. thank you for allowing me and others to come along on your journey out of burnout. i also faced some &quot;nods&quot; when I would candidly share with other believers that I was &quot;on my out&quot; (not &quot;already out and looking back&quot;) at spiritual dryness (wilderness). I presumed the nods were from people who were really lost for words. They just didn&#039;t know how to respond so rather than risk offending me they nodded and kept silent. I understand -- sometimes i am left speechless too!]]></description>
