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.
This blog was originally designed for me to use just as an outlet with all of things going on in life. It has since segued into an account of my weight loss journey.
