I'm happy for you. Me too...been way too long to have the gentle touch of self care and self love. Being Very Hard on myself for my life (64) I've come to the conclusion that pain in life is going to happen, beating myself to a pulp is not conducive to change. Baby Seeps and support with your journey.

awesome post so full of hope. I know you will make this year a better year! I hope you will build on this strong start by taking some time to plan some smart goals for year and hang them where you can see them everyday.

I'm glad you're feeling good and hopeful. Of course your mood will change and I think Spiral's idea about having concrete goals that you can fulfill is a good one.

Happiness is the journey!!! Hope you have a good time

I’m so happy for you. Now if you can bottle that positive thinking , I’ll take some. Triple hugs way to be you!

I'm so glad that you're having a good day sweetie..... big hug.....xo

Good post Sarah. We've both need to realise if we have downs they are not the end of the world as we know it and the ups will come again. Good luck.

It is so wonderful to hear some hopeful thoughts! I'm wishing you continued happiness. I hope to catch up with you. It's only been 3 months + since my Henry passed on Sept. 29th. It's been the worst time of my life. Why aren't any of us prepared for grief?

Omg your so right... I was completely shocked and overwhelmed by the sheer intensity of pain and how much losing an attachment affects your perception and experience of life

There are no guide books on what is going on or the process

No one supports you with such long term need

Awful

A lot of people get bitter over it, please find people who you can be upset with and gain comfort xx
