Not going to that work conference half way across the country on Sept 11, 2001, I had to cancel my travel plans due to a large number of people out sick at work that week.
My first husband divorced me after 20+ years of marriage. I thought it was the end of the world.Â
But once I started putting all that good energy into my own life, instead of working so hard to save a bad marriage, my life blossomed.Â
I wrote a book about a niche topic and that book changed my life. I met new people and had so much fun traveling around and promoting it! And I made some money. MY money!Â
Because of that book, I met a wonderful man who became my husband. He died several years ago but we had ten years.Â
I can’t imagine my life if I had stayed with the first husband.Â
Many years ago, I reluctantly made yet another appointment with yet another physician. I was highly skeptical that he could help me, and nearly cancelled. He (who’d now be called akin to a Functional doctor) turned out to be a Life-saver.

Second husband dumping me for my “best friend”. My life without those two has been worlds better.
All my blessings were known at the time. I missed the chance at a sheep in wolf’s clothing. Maybe next time.
Getting fired, made me change course and double my earnings.
Selling nearly everything and moving overseas for a job opportunity that seemed risky but looked like it could have big upsides
What’s up with all these vague 1 ssntance posts here asking the equivalent of ” do you like stuff?” And OP never responds.

Not marrying Danny. Thank goodness!
Being raised in the 70s and 80s. Before technology took over.
Trump. Because he brought many under a rock problems like bigotry and flaws in the system into the light of day that can now be addressed.
Getting divorced. Once it was finalized, I got a second chance at living my life, and made the most of it.
