What a wonderful story Susan, love that your Dad still knows best how to help you. It's easy to overfocus on our problems sometimes. Weirdly I was reading a book by an old acting teacher last night that is as much a life manual as anything, and a whole section about the same attitude your dad had with risk taking/having faith things will work out. She writes to choose to trust life, and "I accept where I am, and I trust the future". Our "automatic mind" is based in fear, survival, whereas our "master mind is about overcoming fear"-taking risks, etc. Which can be hard with your back against the wall. Proud of you for letting go of that headspace, I know it's hard when times are tough to trust things will work out all too well. Best of luck to your daughter, her future is bright no matter what with you in her corner. ❤️
