Has anyone picked up the book “The Pivot Year”? Author is Brianna Wiest. I found it helpful for journaling this past year. Wondered if anyone else had enjoyed it/found it helpful. I didn’t use all of the time however on the days I was struggling to journal, it gave me a good starter question.

Ya’ know that saying, “time heals all wounds”? No, it doesn’t. The passage of time may soften the wound and the pain, but it’s still there and a certain sound, or smell, or whatever can bring back the hurt like it just happened. So, be kind to yourself and understanding of others if ya’ can. 💔❤️‍🩹💕

Today is a good day to die" originates from the Lakota Sioux battle cry Hóka-hey, meaning "let's go" or "today is a good day to die". The phrase can be interpreted as a call to live authentically and without regrets, by confronting mortality and focusing on what truly matters. May we all be blessed with today being a good day to die.
