Sometimes I'm afraid to give certain things voice, that with the words I’ll fall into an abyss.  But there's a sense of relief and release through writing them.  Most posts are positive, not in a manufactured way, just positive – because we are.  Mostly.
Writing about the opposite, though, can squash it.  Writing about the bad times helps keep the negative from growing and festering, lets those thoughts break free and fly away, taking the burdens we carry with them.
And anyway, even when she cries and even when we're tired, no matter how uncongenial our circumstances feel, this house is full of so much love.

You may express it with words or say it to my face, Batten sucks!!! However, YOUR house is FULL of LOVE!

P.S. I had to go into town and post this from the library. I no longer have internet access at my house. I think that our closest neighbor must have moved.
