Sometimes there are no "right" words to say.
We spent so much energy trying to find the "right" thing to say we miss the opportunity to just be.

Shared tears
Hugging one another
Leaning on each other
Laughter through the pain
Never underestimate the power of you just showing up! And not saying a word!

While cooking dinner tonight I burned the damn onions. Not because onions are hard to cook, but because I was trying to do too much at once.
Sound familiar?
While I was cooking the meat and heating up the veggies, I loaded the dishwasher and wiped down the counters. I can’t stand cooking in a cluttered kitchen.
