I had a thought yesterday, as i was going through some old pictures and getting a good feeling from them as i was looking at them, and i thought, through all this pain and hurting there was something i had that could take me away just for a little while and make me smile, make me feel good just for a few minutes.  I thought that is exactly what we need for support and therapy that we need to acknowledge all the dark ugly scary feelings, and then find a place where just for a little bit find something that can make you smile, or help you remember a time that was better in your life.

I wanted to do something, so i created the group Something that makes you Smile.  I thought it was something that was a perfect thing for a group like this, that we can share in the good and the bad together.  I know that for me my world seems so dark some times, i don't have my family here, I am at home with a husband who has a back injury also suffering with depression and effects of the numerous drugs he's on, and it feels like nothing can make me smile or make me feel good, but as i was looking through all my pictures i was wrong i could take my little time and make me feel good because my husband wasn't helping and my family was so far away.  And i needed something or i was going to go crazy. 

So i hope you all find that on the group that even if you don't post that you find a smile, or just a place to take you away for a moment!!!
