A year in a glance...
How can someone show love over and over again even though we don't deserve it? That's the lesson this year has taught me. Within a few weeks, my daughter moved out and I was served custody papers on my son. I was devastated. I couldn't look at my house in the same way. But there was one thing that kept me going....my faith. Some people may think "faith" is just something we throw out there like the old sayings are spoken here in the south. Learning to live with the things I could not change and rely on God was the hardest lesson I could learn, especially when my instincts are to control every aspect of every situation. But God always has a different plan!! It's our job to trust in Him.
Has the "boy in the bubble" theory every looked so promising?
Diagnosed with RA as a young adult, I can pinpoint the exact moment my life changed for the first time. It no longer meant cute shoes and dazzling outfits. Now I had to learn what my limits were, and how not to get sick. Not to mention, pray I didn't fall, which I was getting good at! The longer I lived with RA, the more the boy in the bubble had it so much better than me. But when I thought about all of what life had to offer I had to think hard. The bad days sometimes outweigh the good, but truth be told I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. One thing the boy in th bubble could never do, which I don't think I could ever give up, is feel the world with all its emotions and hardships.
