Stronger than yesterday...

Part 1 - I ask why...

I think a lot of what I'm thinking and feeling are starting to all bubble to the surface again. Like many others, I keep telling myself "God only gives you what you can handle". Well I'm 27 years old. How much more am I going to get? I pray and all that. I believe, maybe not fully, but I believe. I know I have people who care about us and are praying for us and are willing to lend an ear if I need it. I'm fully grateful. I hope some don't take offense when I don't talk to them about things in detail. I need people who UNDERSTAND what I'm dealing with. People who have been there and done that. I know of only two other moms who have been dealing with these types of issues and apparently one that I had no idea until yesterday. I am thankful for these women (and all the others) who speak words of strength, courage, compassion, love and understanding. It truly makes things easier to swallow.

Part 2 - What's my song?

I was trying to find a song with the lyrics that expressed how I felt. Of course, I can't find the "best" one. I figure if I take a line from one and a piece from another and a snippet from another, I'd have the best song that describes me. Well, thanks to the help of Gloria Gaynor, Britney Spears, Sara Evans and Kanye West, I think I have put the lines together nicely.

At first I was afraid, I was petrified.
Now that that don't kill me, can only make me stronger.
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay, even on my weakest days. I get a little bit stronger.
Stronger than yesterday, not it's nothing but my way.
I will survive.

Funny how most of them discuss failing relationships... but I put them together like this and make them work just for me.
