I've learned that some members of your family may not always be there for you. It may seem funny, but people you aren't related to can take care of you and love you and teach you to trust people again. Families aren't biological

AMEN TO THAT!!!!! Great post, Jadapit!! Thanks for sharing.

I've saved these and have been reading over the past few days often. I think you posted these at a time when I really needed to see them. I find them a comfort and that they really give me perspective when things are so difficult and uncertain.

I would add to them, for myself:

I have learned that giving is more rewarding than receiving, and the more I give of myself, the more I feel I have the strength to deal with my own hardship.

Sometimes this is something I have to re-learn every so often.
