An entire sea cannot sink a ship unless the water gets inside of the ship. The same with the negativity of the world: it can’t bring you down unless you let it get inside of you. We cannot control what happens around us, but we can control our reaction to it. May your day be peaceful, my friends. 😊

I’m just going to leave this here Frank Turner’s music "In a world that has decided that it's going to lose it's mind, be more kind" helped me through early COVID Let's make America great again By making racists ashamed again Let's make compassion in fashion again www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KuF...

You are not the noise of the world, But the quiet strength it cannot steal. Not the wounds you hide in shadows, But the light that dares to heal. Every flaw you see in the mirror Is a story of battles you've won. Like the cracks in a weathered stone,

From someone who relies on them to provide care, thank you so much 😊
