-- Quote of the Day -- 

“When you can go from a place of pain to a place of renewal – and this will take some time, it won’t happen overnight – but when you do get to that place you realize how strong you are and what you survived. …We are a loss-denying society – the problem is if we don’t talk about it, it is still boing to happen to us and we will be ill informed.  So we hurry it along, we don’t necessarily make the right decisions and then feel like something is wrong with us. …Your happiness is not dependent on the presence of another person. …If you need any part of the healing journey get some help – it is not a sign of weakness to ask for help to move through the grief process. …It is so important to understand that the heart expands infinitely to embrace love. …Your past shapes you; it does not define you – don’t live a destiny that you didn’t choose.”

Carole Fleet
