I’m having a hard time, and things aren’t the greatest, so I wanted to hear some good things. What is the best thing in your life right now? Go into detail if you feel like it.

I guess officially my next trip is September, but I imagine I’ll be going somewhere between now and then. My dad’s side of the family has that Fourth of July family get away, but I can’t go to that. It’s just so hot even my dad is...
