    There is great freedom in finally ceasing the judgement of everything that happens in our lives as “bad” or “good”.

    Yes! It isn’t what happens to us, it is how we perceive it that matters.

    OH did this one speak to me especially …. “Its time to change perspective”. I deliberately go out with Mother today to seek solutions that I KNOW are there yet are still not seen by me. Middle Ground ….. I best find that in Nature. Bless you, Val, for this confirmation!! ❤
