I hope you find ways to feel good in your own skin. I think depending on children to make you feel better would be a mistake, not only for you, but for them!

This is a quote I like.

Alan Watts on the meaning of life:

"The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves."
