I have been thinking......
Why do I find it hard to think about myself??
And I think it is because I will realize how very hurt I am, and I think I will lose it.......
But I am try to give in a little......
I am trying to be strong for myself.....
I could handle this or maybe I need some time. I do fell strong, but then I have my set backs......
I know with time it will get better, but I will try to feel happy for what I am doing and can do......
Finishing the first semester has brought so much confidence for myself...... This has been a major 'Joy' for me.....
And I am focusing on completing my degree. That is my next goal........ One semester at a time........ RIGHT....
So I have been tagged by Ellen Onedayatatime.....

Brenda I like your list! You should try to have at least three of those things in your day to keep you smiling!
ReplyDeleteYou should be so proud of yourself, we all are.

I believe, as women, we find it so difficult to think of ourselves, because we've had it mentally instilled in us that our children and husband/partner, come first. This is an age old belief that is very difficult to change/adjust. While true, up to a point, we must realize that taking care of US, actually makes us better mom's and partners. If we neglect ourself, we shortchange our family. Its not easy to put ourself first, but small things, a bubble bath, a manicure, a facial, reading a book, lunch with a friend, a walk alone just to clear your head or pray...can do wonders for your psyche. Doesn't have to cost a penny to do, but you must fit it in or you won't do it. I've learned the hard way that putting myself last is detrimental to my health, mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually! Take time for you...cuz YOU matter! Take care...
