House of the Singing Waters

I know as well as anyone how hard it can be to reach out and ask for emotional support. It' hard to be the first to take a hand or take an offereed hug. It is OK to be thankful and to hold on to the good, when there is pain all around you. You are not to blame, all you can do is support where you can and accept support where it is offered. Dont push away the good things. Hold them closer and with gratitude. Dont push away because you harbor fears of losing them or that somehow you dont deserve happiness, because you do! Yes there are folks all around dealing with life and death the best they can. Including you and Shannon. We are all doing the best we can with what we've got. Hug those you love and tell them how you feel. Be more forgiving of the small things. We are all at our best when we pull past ourselves and stand together.
