“She is happily married until today”
Says who? How can you measure happiness vs “settling for what was decided as better for you”
I apprciate things I work hard for, more than things that are just handed to me. Can I make a multi-tier cream cake? Not one that looks professional. Can I make chocolate chip cookies that taste great?
Yes. And I appreciate each and every one of them (the ones I share with others, even more so)
