I am basically saying this to remind myself but I hope it helps someone else. Since the beginning of the year or so I have been trying to practice this in my marriage. I am not always successful but I am doing better. I have been counseled & listen on here. All I can say for sure is that it works if you work it & I am worth it simply said. Kathleenđ

Thank you Kathleen for the lovely reminder......for me the statement of, "I'd rather be happy than right" pops into my head as my sponsor used to ask me over and over and over again, "Would you rather be right or would you rather be happy?"

(((Hugs)))
