Listening to podcasts about self compassion, by Kristin Neff have been helping me stay more positive.🥰

Thank you for reminding me about Cole’s wisdom on lament. That cemented things for me today,

Mary included a link to this post in her "pocket of prose" today and I am so glad. These were helpful and lovely words for difficult times.
