"Because I'm so honest, it's hard for me to pretend everything's fine when it's not. As a kid, I wish I'd been allowed to think it was okay to admit things were not fine. I think it's unfair to grow up thinking that when your gut is saying things don't seem like they're fine, you think, 'Well, I'm wrong and I can't trust my feelings because the only feelings I'm allowed to have are really happy feelings.' That's just not okay."
---Ellen DeGeneres
I could have written those words and applied them to my life. I'm learning now to embrace my gut feelings and trust my thoughts. It's never too late...still learning...
