The sweetest sentence in the English language: “I love you.”
Runner-up: “It’s benign.”
We are stronger than we know and more afraid than we let on. Proceed with kindness.

Love conquers all and you have a lot of people who love you.

✨💕🙏💕✨ I have heard it said that we are never given more than we can handle… I want to add that how we handle is very personal, and never wrong. You are blessed beyond measure, Jean Ryan, and I am proud to call you my friend! 🎀
The feeling is very mutual, my lovely caring friend.
Always such lovely poignancy in your words, Jean.
How true!
