Honest but upbeat. I love that it’s so positive.
The two others who shared.
And my sharing.

That day at Best Buy. A year ago April. I’ll never forget it. When I was afraid and nervous going in, not know HOW to buy a tv… how does one hang those new kinds… etc. And standing there waiting, – the veil was lifted. Omg. The veil. Was lifted.

And it has not returned since!
