I agree that it is hard to be positive sometimes. It is so wonderful having all of you to talk to because, with so many of us, those who are really having a bad day can let out their feelings - while those having a better day are able to inspire them to keep going! So many kind, thoughtful, helpful and loving words are shared here. I love that we are able to keep pulling each other up. I think staying positive as much as possible is very important. Ya know, I have noticed so many things around me that I never slowed down enough before to see - to really see. Was that sunset really so beautiful a few years ago? Probably, but I never sat and watched it for 30 minutes at a time - noticing every change in color as it slowly disappeared. I now take the time to just sit with my kids and talk as they lay in bed and are drifting off to sleep. Before FM I was always in too big a hurry to get ready for the next day. When talking to my son one night, he said "You are the best mom in the universe, I could just eat you up!"  I don't remember him ever saying that before I was forced to stop working and slow down. He now says that every night as his bedtime ritual. Crazy, but sometimes I think this FM has been a blessing to me in many ways. I would have never slowed down and noticed life had I not been forced to. I don't know why this thing is attacking my body, but I have to believe there is a greater good on this path. My pain may be intense, but I now also feel joy with the same intenseness! |
