I think we have points of clarity in our lives that we can cling to. Points in which we know we made the right decision and so we can say "hey, I did that" and carry on. The two biggest decisions I ever made were to divorce my first husband and marry my current one. He's incredible. He's amazing. They were decisions that were hard to make -- the first more so than the last -- but I'm glad I can remember them and that feeling of knowing I made the right decision.
Right now I'm trying to remember the decisions I had that put me where I'm at and trying so I can keep going. I sometimes feel like Dory from Finding Nemo, "just keep swimming, just keep swimming" -- but I think that is part of resiliency too. Just keeping on and with every step, our muscles are stronger.
