Allow Yourself The Courtesy Of A New Perspective

It's often easier to be kind to others than to ourselves. I've had to work hard at retraining my thought processes to accept myself as a work-in-progress. I think in visuals. One which has really helped me is to see it as rewiring the circuitry in my brain in order to recognize myself in a new light.

How much is to much?

I will be married for 10 years with him for 14. When you first get together with someone you get to know each other. Can’t seem to get enough of each other. Most couples get into a routine and go about your business. My husband is different in a way I feel he thinks he is entitled to once a week. I just don’t have it in me anymore. I don’t get anything out of it anymore. I have so much going on in my body and I just don’t want touched anymore. I’m being so selfish. It’s killing me because I was a very touchy feeling person. I have pain everywhere.

I am trying to redo our bathroom. Paint, new fixtures and knobs. Trying to get stuff done before my knee replacement surgery. The last time I painted a room I could bend and get into the tight spots. No help needed. Well I got a real wake up call. I couldn’t do it. Then I get frustrated and just pissed off. I’ve been working on this all week. So I’m upset with myself and I get it’s been over a week. I just lost it!! I screamed at him I can’t do this and you when I’m not getting nothing out of it. I’m not the same woman I was and I keep telling you that but you keep thinking I am! He left and went to the store. I balled my eyes out went upstairs and painted trim. #Migraine #Hypothyroidism #RLS #Osteoarthritis #Hypertension #spinalcorddisease #Depression #PTSD #Syrinx #Tinnitus

As the walking wounded, our lives often go into reboot mode...when the opportunity comes to select our paving stones. 🧠

When we're hurting so badly that it becomes too overwhelming to think beyond the most simple of tasks, we become the walking wounded. I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason. I believe that God guides us. As our brains go on autopilot, I believe it is at that point when even our subconscious steps in to help guide which path we will take. The path to healing and transformation, or the path to continued stumbling and struggle.

Both bring with them different forms of struggle and unfortunately, different results. My hope for you is that by being here #MightyTogether you already recognize, or want to recognize your worth. Healing from of any sort is is hard work, and quick fix thoughtless comments from insensitive people certainly don't help.

Anyone who has faced a serious illness be it mental or physical, knows that it takes the strength of a Triathlete to fight back and reach your New Normal. I speak from experience. We all have a story of survival and can help lend a hand up for someone else struggling, possibly when we don't even realize. Just by you being brave enough to share your experience(s), could be exactly what someone in your path has needed to hear.

Be Well 💜 Be Brave 🧠 Survive To Thrive 💜

Reframe Your Perspective

I found this year's ago and it has helped often. Please consider sharing it with others. I know it's exhausting to keep going sometimes. Please don't become so bitter that you give up on yourself. Your survival story can have a life changing impact for another individual.
💜🧠 Survive To Thrive 🕊🙂
