Jilly, I have a friend who goes to a local Unity church, and she is bi-polar. When she went on her meds, her world changed. She is very happy and functional now - where before she was pretty much confined to home.

We are capable of much more than we give ourselves credit for. And at the least, when we find things to be grateful for, it can bring a smile to our face, and make us feel a bit better than we felt moments before, ya know?
