"Breathe through the back of your heart, that is where your Happiness is."-Cara, fellow yogini.

I won't ever give up on you.

So, I woke up this morning on the floor with a pillow, blanket and books all around me. (and a finished bottle of wine.) In a daze I looked around and I immediately started smiling. All the things I should and am thankful for just flowed into my brain. It reminded me of the Sweet Valley High series I read as a teenager. When I was about 15 I read the best advice I could ever get. Elizabeth Wakefield (my favorite character in the series) said,"Every time I get in the shower, I say 10 things I am thankful for, every morning." Ever since then I have followed this. And I have forgotten I do it still. Everyday. It has become a habit.

Try it.

our future treehouse.

Erik promised me today that he will build us a treehouse. I'm a lucky girl.

cheers,

to new jobs and new beginnings.

I met sadness and relief today. Crazy combo. I can never not be thankful. I feel silly for my selfishness when I don't need to take, I need to give, always.
