These last few months were spent discovering what I am made of. I could have done without it. It was not pretty.
It felt like a series of gut punches featuring endings that cumulated with a teetering on the brink. This left all in the family breathless. That saying about crap coming in threes – no exaggeration!!
I am, however, still standing. I was blessed with the strength to pull back from the brink. And for this, I am thankful it is autumn still.
