I’m Grateful For…

The last year has really been focused on my new belief in myself and that things will work out for me. With fibro it’s been a constant fight with depression and anxiety. These are both legitimate conditions that need therapy and medication. Even after all the anti depressants I still didn’t feel like I was going anywhere. I just wanted a few simple things like my very own place to live so I could control my sleeping schedule and a job I could handle with fibromyalgia so I could really support myself. I even have a little energy left over to take care of my apartment, send out christmas cards and hike.

I’ve been using variations on the Secret such as the “Change Your Life in 7 Days Book” for about the past year. Sometimes I get frustrated and don’t think its working. I don’t own a home, let alone a home without a mortgage yet. I’m still not healthy. My passive income hasn’t taken off to the point that I can just focus on my health and being happy. However, sometimes I need to just stop and look at what I have accomplished and how I’ve been blessed. I finally have an apartment that I don’t share with roommates. I have several freelancing gigs that allow me to support myself with a minimum of stress. I am calm. I am hopeful. I am happy.

    I really appreciate the way you have looked at the life. It is a human duty to overcome the obstacles that have been given to the human to get control on them.

    I have enjoyed following your ‘adventures’ in fibromyalgia this past year. Unlike a lot of folks writing about FMS you are not a whiner, and I really respect that. Being in the 13th year of FMS in my own life, I know from where you speak. In my case I have a 35 mile dirt road drive to a village where nothing but basic shopping and a post office are available.It does however have a small clinic run by a terrific CNP, but it’s another 30 miles to a town with a drug store.
    I love my rural life, and even tho the rough 35 mile drive is VERY tiring, I never tire of the views and the encounters w/ wildlife and the occasional far-flung neighbor. Computer access has made this lifestyle available to me, otherwise I would probably have had to sell up and move to town years ago. I do most stuff online…from selling my art/crafts to shopping, and only drive to town an average of 2x a month. At least I can watch and pet my horses, even if I no longer ride.
    Thanks for the things you share.
