I am soo glad I found you on IG, I think you are just the sweetest and truly a wonderful person (hard to find these days!) I think your life and your determination are so inspiring to me! I made note of your point to focus on gratitude & contentment instead of old friends & jealousy and I am currently struggling with that. I don't want this struggle any longer..I just want contentment for my beautiful life today. Would love your thoughts in a post about how you overcome your struggles..I'm sure we could all learn from each other and build each other up rather than tearing each other down (seems so common to be cruel these days, breaks my heart)
