Morning is a rough time. Focusing on anything can be a task. I always feel a bit down when I wake a realise "Darn I still have Lupus".
But then I bring myself back and say..."O.k, Anita just one day at a time". Everyday does bring new hope. I know that sounds like a line that has been over used...but its true.
I have today. I can work on making each day better, today.
Once I get myself down the stairs and I see the rooms filled with my beautiful work...."I did all this"!
I know I can be fine if I let myself.
I have so many fun things planned for my open House. Doors prizes and treats and meeting new ppl'..
It really pushes me forward.
I know that some just can't. They may say...shut up anita. Just because you can does not mean I can.
I really know what that is like.
I spent 9 years or so looking for a doctor. looking to find out what was wrong. And I spent MOST of that time on the couch or in bed.
I know what that feels like, I know how hard it is. Your just watching life, instead of being part of it.
I can't stress enough....find something to do. ANYTHING. If you can't get out off bed...
Give yourself 1 goal for the day. Slowly ad another goal...and so on.
I would get so frustrated and angry (at everything), it would just make my day harder. I realised it was only because I was trying to be what everyone said I should be and do...
Just get up....you have kids, you can't lay around.
your being lazy, push yourself.
I would lay there and think..."what is wrong with me"?
Why can't I just get up?
But now I know, I have to do it the way, I know I can...
Not how others believe I should.
YOU knw your body and mind. Nobody else does.
Not relatives, best friends or neighbors.
Once I stopped being worried about what others said and thought, I starting doind much better. I put THAT energy into ME. I became selfish. I no longer felt like getting any advice from others. I started doing it my way.
It has given me so much more enegry. I don't waste th time thinking about how to make others happy with me.
I think about how I can make my day happy. How can I use my energy in a positive way for ME.
I am getting so many emails from ppl' asking .."how do I get them to understand, I really don't feel good"..???
DON'T. They don't need to understand...lol.
Do you walk around asking ppl' to be a certain way for your approval?
Then why should you live that way?
It is YOUR life. You only get one...lol
Work with it the way you want too.
You will be a better person for YOU.
When others around see this, and start getting the idea,
they will understand.
But for right now , JUST WORRY ABOUT YOU....LOL
It will all work out with time...
Take care evryone..
Be back on soon
Anita
