Just awesome! With the flag? I can always tell which way the wind is blowing. Get up early enough? The sunrise to the left of her, is magnificent! its the SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE FOLKS, KEEP IT SIMPLE!

HI Monica, Welcome to SR!
((((((((((((((MONICA))))))))))))
awwwww!* blush* Thank you for your reply and kind words!!
My story isnt any much different then a lot of others I have read here on SR!
Chances and Choices, is all I can say! I made a choice to change my situation, and took a chance on doing so. I didnt have a good relationship with my HP, until one night I sat there on the porch of where I was living and gave him some "what for" Personally? It taught me a lesson, that no MATTER how we talk to him, he hears us! AS LONG AS ITS FROM OUR HEARTS!!! I cant explain the events that unfolded that next week, but they just did. I worked hard on my decisision to Stop whining and get off my pity pot, (After some serious pre-planning, cant emphazise the pre-planing enough!!) I did what I had to do to take back MY life.
It is the simplest thing to do, but it isnt easy, if that makes any sense.
Dont get me wrong, I was terrified! But I just had a calming feeling inside that kept telling me I was going in the right direction.
I dont give out advice, I can only post my story hear as an example as to what I did.
I can tell you this: MY LIFE is more peaceful, less stressful and the feeling of contentment is coming back slowly.
Do I still struggle? oh you bet I do! With classes now, my mind stays busy,( even though I choked on my test yesterday :banghead: ) it willnot stop me! Thats where the ONE DAY AT A TIME and KEEP IT SIMPLE comes into play.
It is the little things in life!! Like feeding the birds each morning, feeding the squirrels, ANYTHING to start your day out that puts a smile on your face and a hop in your step
THATS what works for me.
Blessings to you, dear sweet Monica, and to you all.
May the sun shine brightly on your cloudest days and always!!
Love and light to you all!
Much love from Montana!!! :ilu
