I think many underestimate the fact that we need to have a few downs to truly appreciate the ups. Experiencing and understanding frustration and dark is what gives joy and light it's depth of meaning. Your method of getting through is one I try to use myself when I get irritated about small stuff...in a week/month/year/etc will this really matter, will I really still care about it? Most of the time the answer is no, so I take a breath and continue on.
Hope you had a good trip otherwise! My husband and I just got back from the Sierras and got to check a few things off the bucket list like hiking to 10k feet and jumping in Lake Tahoe. It's good to get away even if there are moments of frustration that might accompany it.
It was great meeting you in person and I look forward to supporting your work.
Thank you!!!
Like water off a duck's back! Let the bad shit go and focus on what makes you happy.

Sounds like a great time. Making memories is one of the most important things we do in this life.
I'm glad all is well. I'm having a difficult day today and this message was welcome. Thanks.
