We all face situations in our life that are unexpected, unplanned and sometimes downright scary. Our first response, after a total breakdown is to go into total denial. We act like everything is okay when in fact we feel like we’re dying inside. Then we find a few close friends or family members to confide in and all of a sudden this horrible situation doesn’t seem so big. We have support. We have someone to talk things out with and we gain the strength and courage to move forward.
Things are not always as bad as they seem. I’m a strong believer that everything happens for a reason. I don’t think I would be the person I am today if I didn’t have Fibromyalgia. We all have our own struggles in life and with the right attitude we can all come out on top. Sometimes it’s hard to see through the pain and frustration, but we have to keep moving forward. We have to keep on keepin' on.
