Love, laugh, cry, I heard in my head. Maybe it's sarcasm or maybe it's a little wisdom leaking into my head because I heard these words next: serve, don't take yourself too seriously, and release. How I arrived at that second set of words took years.

The thought I had after my traffic frustration, survival, and no-one cares attitude was to turn inward for answers and not turn off or tune out. OK, I may need to turn away from news channels, too, for my mental health, but I'm learning to turn inward to work on my daily stress level.
