Everyone Has An Opinion
Yes, we do.
But are my opinions of Michael’s family and friends based on loving acceptance or from lenses of fear and hurt?
Mind you, there may be a few behaviours of his family or friends that do not align with my values.
Hopefully, I am able to be skillful in my navigation of this.
I haven’t always been able to do this.
However, I’ve learned, grown and changed over the years.
I’ve matured to understand how respect for Michael’s feelings of his family and friends goes a long way.
S, ♥️

Stephanie, there is no greater truth in life than what you wrote as your last line in this blog…👵🏻💜🥰
💔 ” Underneath every person is a struggle we know nothing about”💔
There is something I read once that says….during meditation🙏
” Something’s we have no right to know, …
Go where you will…you will find this so”
Love the picture of You & Michael!💞
Thanks mama!!!
