We are not given a good or bad life. We are given a life. It's up to us to make it good or bad. We arent always in control of what life throws our way what happens with our health or what is happening in the world. But we can control how we view these situations and what we do next. You always have a choice. Take your power back. You can stay stuck or move forward. When you get caught up in asking yourself why me or why is this happening to me it makes you feel like a victim.

You must be willing to do whatever it takes to make your life the best it can be. And although no one can do it for you it certainly helps to have someone by your side to do it WITH you. Healing is messy and often downright ugly. My husband is the only one who really sees me at my worst weakest and most vulnerable and its not always easy.
