Living through another storm.

Life hands you lemons? We have all heard that one right?

Time heals? That one surfaces in most comfort conversations right?

How about what’s meant to be…

I don’t know about anyone else, but currently the “comforts” of life’s woes are not helping me push through the current storm in my life.

What is there to turn to when you hurt physically and emotionally and are in a constant stasis of fight or flight mode? For me it has been learning meditation, incorporating prayer and the practice of letting go, researching possible symptom managements, and yet constantly circling back to the fact that I can’t “fix” my storm.

Storms come in so many forms, and each of us is walking a path that few if any truly even know we are on. Always remember to be kind as you have no idea what someone is dealing with in that moment. Think of the kindness you wanted at your lowest point and offer that to others on a continuous basis even when you yourself are tired and weathering a storm… because you never know.

My storms continue to brew today, and my heart is so heavy with so many feelings, but todays goal is to show kindness to those who cross my path because each of us deserves the space to weather our storms without anyone throwing any other shade our way.

Make a difference, just be kind.
