I have already told Fuzzy and Tisha that you'all were there when I really needed support but I do want to acknowledge Rohag and Thirty shades too! Much love to you'all--I appreciate what kind, smart people you all are through and through!!
Sometimes, we need to take time for just ourselves. I have learned that, in order to nurture others, I have to nurture myself first. You are all natural nurturers but never feel like you need to be here when you are not feeling it because the world has drained you. You will be at your brightest when your needs are met.
My wish is that we all figure out what we need (I mostly have and hope you all do too
) then figure out how to go out and get it (I am still working on this and may never achieve it but am really trying). Bless all of you. Remember to put yourselves first because all of you are very, very giving people. Love yourselves because you are all so great!!
