Betsey and labug,

I cannot express how grateful I am that you took the time to share this perspective in such a kind way. This way of being-- of seeing the positives, of focusing more on others than myself is not how I was raised. It's not how my parents are and it's not how my grandparents were. So it is something I am learning to be and do every day.

I am grateful for the opportunity I have to show my daughter a different way.

Goal #1: stop having so much d@mn self-pity and being so self-obsessed. Focus on the positives. Expand that.

And send some food to my SIL.

Thank you.
