Life Is For The Living

In life there is no restart button or any do overs. Life is what it is. What we do or don't do and the people we have around us is what's going to help us make the best out of life. These are the things that will affect our lives for the good or bad. But we have to live with that. P a friend of mine on here tells me all the time that "Life is for the living". Life has its ups and downs, true as that may be. But it is how we work through the downs that make us stronger and it is the downs that makes us want to see the ups and the ups are what make life worth living.

 

We all have the choice of how we will live our life. When I really think about it, it all comes down to this. Life is too short sometimes. It is not for us to say when it should end. Life comes with the good and bad. How we deal with it is up to us. We can make choices that will leave us miserable and unhappy or not. The people that you have around you also can have a big impact on your life. I have come to understand and accept this.

 

Surrounding myself with good friends and people who love me warts and all. Taking it one day at a time. This is how I have gotten this far and will keep on keeping on. This is my fresh start kinda in a way. I AM A SURVIVER AND I WILL KEEP ON SURVIVING.

Damned If I Do Damned If I Don't

(Please be warned. If you do not want to read a rant please do not read on.)



I recently had to change endo and my new endo and I seem to be at each other that's to say we are not a good match. He wants to set my pump setting to high and I know that they will make me drop like a rock, but he says that he knows what he is doing and that this is what I need. Then when I drop he say it has to be something that I did. What the hell? I told him I did as you to me to do. Then he lowers my… Continue

In A Bad Place And Trying To Turn Things Around

Posted on February 7, 2011 at 6:00am 10 Comments

I am writing from the comfort of my brothers closet. It smells like my dad. For those who don't know his closet is my "hiding place", the place where I go to be alone and where I can think about things.



It is about ten minutes to six in the morning in the Chicago area.I haven't really slept much in the last three days.I have just really been feeling like crap. I know I don't do well with winter time of the year since I was 6 and my dad died during that time of the year. And doesn't… Continue
