Keep Pushing

Sometimes when people see you living your life they don't realize that you are pushing through the issues of lupus, that they never see. They look at you and think you are okay; When in fact, if you didn't push through you know you would never be able to live a good life staying sad and depressed in your symptoms. Although lupus is difficult, there is something about pushing through when you thought you could do no more. You have to live and many won't ever understand how you can look so good while the war is raging in your body. Keep living, keep pushing, rest when you must because it's beautiful living life beyond . #lupusincolor #LifeBeyondLupus
