I like this it was positive and nice. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you :)
I’m sometimes very mean but deep down I just want everyone to be happy.
See im very mean on the surface but deep down inside i feel the same. And i hope you have something positive happen to you this week.
Thank you:) my wife and I yesterday got into a disagreement and after stopping to chat about it and sharing how both of us felt, we realized there were little things that unintentionally hurt the others feelings.
Now we both know what to consciously avoid and I learned more about her. That’s definitely a positive thing that happened to me this week (despite the lil argument) so thank you! Hope multiple good things happen for ya this week too.
