Saying a big thank you Zoe7, nashy, Teej, Faith-and-hope and Outlander (from a thread somewhere over ⬇️). Yesterday was really not-great and I appreciate the listening eyes and hugs and the landing space that the forum is.

I spoke and cried a lot with family people last night (even including my Grandma who I rarely speak with because she drives me nuts but it felt good to talk last night). Everyone was sad but kind of prepared in a way I guess. The financial pressure of being unable to work will now be relieved for well and unwell ones as they have doctors ready and willing to write that they have limited time left which will put them in early retirement and allow them to access financial security. It was a silver lining in a weird way. It means they'll have the freedom to enjoy the time they do have left doing things that make them happy and being with people who love them. I think we are all looking forward to and in need of that stuff.

I spent most of my day today at the little school for Harmony day. Such an amazing celebration of diversity and community and it gave me the best feel goods. It was a very timely reminder for me of the great that is in the world even though sometimes it super sucks. There is lots of good out there ❤

Thanks again 🌈
