No matter how far out you are from DDay, training your brain to think about things that lift you up is essential to healing. I forget to do it as often as I should, so I thought it would be good practice for us to step outside the betrayal, even if only for a few breaths. I'll try to keep this up for anyone that's interested, and also for myself.

Five Things I'm Thankful For:

7/8/2014

1.) My family

2.) Sunsets

3.) Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

4.) The amazing turning radius of my Suzuki

5.) Lake Tahoe
