Resiliency

Good words from a friend that can apply to many situations in life...

"Getting knocked down can happen to anyone.  That's easy.  It's what you do to get back up that shows your real character."  --  C. Brann

    1. You're welcome! And sometimes it takes time, but that is when you also need to give yourself permission to be kind to yourself. That was the advice of another friend.

  4. Those are very good words indeed. The sort that need to be hung above a work space or next to a bed.

  5. I love this. It's so easy to focus on what knocked us down, and how it feels when we're down, that we think that's how the world will judge us. But it isn't.
