This week events both positive and not-so-positive have reminded me how important it is to have a strong support network of people you love and who love you--friends, family, significant others, friendly co-workers, etc. In the good times, it feels great to be able to experience joy and excitement with other people. Sharing can intensify happy emotions and also, interestingly, help to diminish unhappy ones. When events take an unexpected negative turn, talking with other people really helps me step back and put things in perspective. I feel very lucky and grateful to have people in my life with whom I can share the good and the bad and keep on trucking together. Thanks for propping me up, being sounding boards, offering advice, sharing your good news, and trusting me with your bad news. Together we're better!
