36. It will work out

Sat Feb 19, 2022, 01:06 PM

Feb 2022

Someone once said, things work out for the better, they also work out for the worst - but they always work out. All things must pass. I'm going through the same thing you are right now for the second time. Guilt sucks - you do your best. Hang in there and even we don't really know each other PM me if you want to talk.
