Three good things I am grateful for:

1. My strong body. It carried me through four miles and an hour and a half of walking today, turning my heavy stress into healthy momentum. I'm so happy I did the Peace Trot today.

2. That talk with my neighbor. We had a bit of an issue yesterday due to her trying to make peace between me and someone else. She admitted that she got involved when she didn't need to. Her apology today helped though. It proved that standing my ground with DBT skills works, and it brought total validation right to my doorstep.

3. My own intuition. I put my heart in the driver's seat, skipped the drama yesterday, and ended up with a beautiful weekend full of peace, movies, and community.

Making Peace with Failure — Rachel S Ropeik

My Seattle retreat isn’t happening. I could tell you a tale of how this came to be that made it seem like a straightforward choice to cancel. I could spin a yarn about how the timing wasn’t right or the stars didn’t align or it wasn’t meant to be. Instead, I’m going to be straightforward about it. A
