Andrea, in all the chaos that's been your life as of late the mere fact you can find peace in anything is amazing. But I am so glad you do. You need it. Nature has this amazing way of putting our soul at rest. It gives us strength and peace to face another day. Hugs-

life is too short to wallow in life's darkness. The best way up and out, is to swim towards the light. Kick hard and fast - make the lightness last! ((hugs))

First I want to say that I am so glad to see this nominated. Honestly Andrea I just want to hug you. This write here brought tears to my eyes and it hits home.
I have lived my life for most part in darkness. Was I born this way, is it a choice, abuse, losses, I have asked myself so many times. You are a beautiful soul, you are a daisy who will pull through. Pulling out from this darkness will take all of the energy but there is light. You have great determination and you are a survivor and you have helped so many and you still do. You can do this and you are loved by so many. Hugs to you
