A dear friend gave me a talisman with a raven that reads 'Flecti Non Frangi''. It's Latin and means 'To be Bent not Broken'. According to the description: "It refers to one who can endure hardship yet still remain true to themselves. The raven signifies hope and is believed to have keen vision that pierces through all darkness. " Let's hope it's true!
Right now, what makes me get up in the morning are my eight dependents. You can't stay under the covers when you have horses, dog, and cats to be fed and watered, stalls and litter boxes to be cleaned, dog walked, horses ridden....
