You are so right, thomas11. They are all pretty basic, normal things, but they feel like such a blessing in comparison! Amazing how miserable we can make ourselves. I've been rediscovering such simple pleasures. And finding the "old me" again.
Crazy what harm we can do to ourselves, as if life isn't hard enough on its own.
