Thank you, Fur. Yes, one day at a time makes more sense at this point. Sometimes it's one minute at a time. Two exhusbands were a pain in the butt, too. It was my choice to leave, not theirs. Yes, putting in blueberry bushes can make a big difference, as can having a little deer trust me. Sometimes in my heart, I bow before the universe. I find myself with a humble, even grateful feeling at nothing in particular. I used to think I had to be dynamic. I used to have a savior complex, with my writing. Now, I realize I just keep on keeping on. I may have success and I may not. The world is going mad. My brother was case in point - like the guy in Orlando yesterday. I go inside myself and know that any comfort I can find will help me, and maybe, just maybe, someone else. We never know when the stuff will hit the fan. But we can try to calm ourselves in ordinary moments, so that if and when it does hit the fan, we won't be quite as frazzled.
