I love the title because it articulates, so well, how hard it can be to just do the most basic thing during these difficult times. 💜

Thank you! It’s true, sometimes when you’re immersed in pain, the bravest thing you do in a day is brush your teeth.

Although my pain was different, I found that if I went to work every day, it got better because at least I knew what to do when I was at work. My personal life, on the other hand, was a complete tornado, leaving a broad path of devastation.

Those small compasses, like knowing what to do when you’re at work, provide welcome direction. Even when other areas of life feel like a tornado just hit and blew out all the road signs.
