Maybe you're feeling these emotions. I know I certainly have, especially when saying goodbye to my first cat. Had tremendous feelings of guilt and self doubt and wondering if I had done the right thing. So today I want to offer some comforting affirmations to help you navigate these emotions, reminding you that you acted out of love and compassion.
