My car’s dashboard is an altar and my garage is a church.

Yes, for sure. But if I can get to the woods, I do. Prairies don’t do it quite as well for this Michigan gal. :)

No, it’s not just you, Shannon. Sometimes it’s even OK to despair and swear at God. God gets it. Thanks for your vulnerability.

Haven’t for awhile but your bear-talk reminded me of when I was pregnant with my twins and I kept having the same dream: I was the bear. My babes little cubs that followed me as I protected them. So, a thought for this wintry morn: let’s be the bear? ❤️🙏🏼

I have an hour drive to and from work and often find that is the best time to cry, scream or sit in solitude!

Same. That way, if denial is my cup of tea that day, I can pretend the water on my face came from the showerhead.

Yup, definitely do! There's nothing quite like an unhinged car scream session.

My car is where I can be myself - and use language that would make a sailor blush and not feel guilty about offending anyone....
