Sorry but there’s no amount of *wellness module* that will ever be as fulfilling as when I send @sbrooksmd a text at work that “fyi I’ll be in a counseling session the next hour” (I go q3months just bc they’re great 😌).
And his reply?
“Great! Get out of here!”

Lincoln wrote these words within days of victory in the civil war. Instead of gloating, he asked both sides to "do all which may achieve...a just and lasting peace" #thursdaythoughts #ElectionResults2020
