Some moments have been a gift while others have been trying. When faced with uncertainty I am quick to remind myself of "Who I am."
So who am I ?....
A woman.
A mother.
A person of hope and faith.
A person striving for a future.
for peace.
Someone who sacrifices.
Someone who shows compassion.
Someone who will always "rise up".
One who values her life.
Loves her children.
Respects her friends and family.
Who maybe stubborn.
Who may not be perfect.
Who can accept change.
A guide.
An educator.
A student of life.
I think we forget who we are as people when faced with challenges.
Doubts arise, insecurities, fear, emotion,
to be accepting of things - good and bad - that we cannot change.... it's overwhelming.
We need to remember what qualities makes us who we are. To surround ourselves with those who matter and add value to our lives. Be thankful for what we have, what we experience and opportunities presented.
Times in life will challenge ..... but isn't that how we evolve?
I think sometimes it's better to face these challenges then pretend they
are not happening. It can be draining but that is when we need to remind ourselves of
"Who we are....."
Stay true.
"Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This day is all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on yesterdays."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
