Love this story and your gorgeous heart-filled drawings! The coworking space I co-founded sponsored a repair cafe every month and also started a ‘library of things’, where people can borrow the items they need when they need them, rather than having to buy it. The two support each other as well, keeping the ‘things’ in circulation as long as possible. And as you mention, it is all built on and by community.

Your bear story makes that clear in such a delightful way.
