My Cousin got married last weekend. We have a summer home that’s been in my family since I was a little girl. This is a view of the front lawn. I’m standing on the pier looking back.
This has always been my #happyplace This is the one place where I truly feel safe🙂 This place has nothing but #happymemories for me. I feel #peaceful I feel #calm I feel #Love when I am there 🙂❤️
It’s always been a magical place for me 🙂
I want to share my magical happy place with everyone even if it’s only through this photo 🙂
May you all find that special place that makes you feel loved 🥰
Feel free to tell me your happy place in the comments below 👇🏻
All my LOVE
❤️Chris

"I AM IMPERFECTLY PERFECT ME"
I may not have all the answers
To life's great mysteries
I am far from perfect
I am imperfectly perfect me
I have my flaws, my quirks,
My crazy side....
I dare to be different
So come along for the ride
Join me on this journey
We will build each other up
I will support you and surround you
With my LIGHT and LOVE
Know that you are BEAUTIFUL
INSIDE AND OUT
You are God's great treasure
And so very precious to me
Namasté my friend 🙏🏻
Blessed Be 🙏🏻

What makes you #strong 💪🏻
What empowers you to keep going?
What lifts your Spirit up?
A kind word?
A smile?
A hug?
Maybe it’s the right song on the radio when you turn it on?
Perhaps it’s the sound of Children’s laughter?
Maybe it’s a great support system of your “tribe”, your “Soul family”?
#strength 💪🏻 is not measured by lifting weights.
Strength comes from lifting yourself up every time you get knocked down.
It’s OK to fall.
We all do.
Just don’t stay there on the ground for too long.
Pick yourself back up and come out swinging harder and stronger than before! 🥊💪🏻
YOU GOT THIS!!!
I BELIEVE IN YOU!!
💚Chris

No one said life would be easy.
No one guaranteed us anything.
I didn’t ask for the #CPTSD the #ChronicDepression the #MajorAnxiety I didn’t ask for the #UlcerativeColitis the #CrohnsDisease the #diverticulosis the #Diabetes
I didn’t ask for being part of less than 1%of the ENTIRE WORLD having both inner ears damaged beyond repair. I didn’t ask for the #Tinnitus ringing so loudly in both ears I sometimes can’t hear what ppl say. I didn’t ask for any of this. But I have them and more
They way I see it?
I have 2 choices
I can learn to live with what I have and take #ONESTEP 🦶🏼at a time to do my best. Even if it’s minute to minute
OR
I can be a victim, feel sorry for myself, “woe is me”
I’m learning that I can’t control everything. This is a hard one for me.
I like to know what’s going on, what will happen, I over analyze EVERYTHING and then do it again. It’s a viscous cycle
My mind always races
What about this? What about that? You should have did/said whatever this or that
I’m sure a lot of you know the “Coulda Shoulda Woulda” game we all play
STOP 🛑 ✋🏻
Take a deep breath
My therapist told me something recently that “clicked”
She said “Focus on the things you CAN control, not the things you can’t.” She was right. I’m a #workinprogress but I’m trying 🙂
When I start to focus on what I CAN control, my #Stress levels go down just a bit. The #AnxietyAttack is at bay just a bit longer and I feel just a bit better.
It’s amazing what can happen when focused on what I can control and #letgo of what I can’t.
This is one of my favorite #mantras
Which one will you choose?
Me?
I’ll choose to RISE again and again
