Our river of life has rocks and other obstacles in the river.

We have moments of tragedy. Moments of stepping out of the norm to deal with something. All right along side the moments of joy and love.

This is humanity. Certainly some have more rocks than others, but for many reading us, we can navigate those rocks and obstacles with grace and self-compassion, or with a downward spiral.

What do you choose? And how can you bolster your choice?
