A beautiful piece Evelyn

And a great reminder to be thankful for all that we have.

By the way, I really enjoyed the line -- “my (surprising) ability to cope”

Thanks Michael! Yeah it’s easy to forget the small stuff - but it’s really the stuff that counts

Oh man I love my coffee shop. I’ve legit made friends with the staff - so much so that they all asked me where I’d been when I hadn’t been in for a week haha.

Oh yes good boyfriends deserve at least 3 entries

This was lovely. So many small things to be grateful for when you pay attention.

Oh yes! I’ve found that becoming obsessed with the mundane joys of life I’ve become an infinitely happier person

haha I love Dan, his voice is so soothing and I find the high stakes terror of history to be very soothing. It reminds me that 1000's of lives do not hang on any decision I have to make.
