I May Bend But...

I AM STRONG
I AM A LOVER

I AM A NURTURER
I AM A FIGHTER

I AM LIFE
I AM LOVE

I FALL SHORT AT TIMES
I MAKE MISTAKES

I WILL FAIL AT TIMES
I WILL NOT QUIT

I WILL BEND BUT...
I WILL NOT BREAK!

I want to give up...

I am mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually exhausted. Quitting seems like a viable option. The only thing that's keeping me going is my faith in God and his promises to me, but at what point is that not enough? It seems that no matter how hard I fight to get up something keeps knocking me down. It's so discouraging and overwhelming. I'm emotionally numb because I know if I allowed myself to feel I would be an emotional mess, but how long can I go on like this? I try to tell myself life is hard and things could be worse because I know they could, but I'm tired of being stagnant. No matter what I do I just can't seem to catch a break. I feel like I need a do over, but that's not possible. I have to play the hand I was dealt. I know that I if I keep showing up everyday eventually the day will come when all of this will be a distant memory, but I pray that day comes sooner than later because I feel like giving up!

This week challenged me down to my core ...for the first time in a while I dealt with suicidal thoughts and felt that my family would be better off without me, but God used my love and dedication to my children to save me!

Killing myself would permanently destroy my goal and create a future for my children that I have dreaded way before I was even pregnant with my son....having to grow up in this cold world motherless! Absolutely not at my own hands! The idea of me taking myself from them because "life is too hard" is selfish and the unconditional love I have for my children is selfless , so something wasn't adding up. I needed t...

Not easily broken 2

This past month has been one of the most overwhelming months I've had since last year and I'm feeling it mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Despite knowing that things will get better as long as I continue to stay positive and keep my faith I am guilty of feeling defeated from time to and today was one of those days. For starters I overslept and missed an important appointment, but the day still needed to go on as planned. My grandmother's Home Health nurse, OT, PT, and prosthetic tech all came today before noon, I've had a migraine since I woke up, my mother-in-love is here from out of town, and I'm scheduled to work 38 hours over the next 3 days...so yes today I cried a few tears and had a moment where I felt like giving up may be the better option, but my goals and the people I have depending on me are more important than any stressful day!I will continue to work on being the best wife, mother, granddaughter, nurse, coworker, and friend I can be...
