Thank you for sharing and my thoughts are with you :)<br />http://pempispalace.blogspot.co.uk/2017/05/kindness-challenge-week-2-reflection.htmlSENCO Cat Herderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16026889857534425125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285524106193791252.post-78289966114746536992017-05-21T08:59:00.118-07:002017-05-21T08:59:00.118-07:00Glad you dropped by, Monika.

We need time to process everything and adjust--time we should give ourselves, without feeling guilty.

We put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be strong in the face of obstacles, but now and then those hurdles are enough to really drag us down. You know some of my current situation, and I appreciate you sending that card to let me knowing you're thinking of me. I'm sorry again about your friend Lyn, and your mom. Of course this would be a trying time for you, Linda! Life has a way of reminding us at times of what we've lost. But, as Carole said, I think we have the right to dwell on the positive experiences too. <br /><br />Hugs!
