I have had many people ask me on Twitter recently “how do you stay so positive?” My response is this…I am not always positive. But my faith in God and my will to keep moving forward gets me through. I post my positive quotes (and sometimes silly ones) not only to help inspire others but to also help myself. It does work. It takes work to be “okay” even when everything seems to be wrong.
This week is just one of those weeks and it is only Monday. My roommate had to have her sweet dog laid to rest this morning, which was totally heartbreaking for her. I have become very attached to him also over the last 6 months. He was truly one of the coolest, sweetest dogs I have ever met in my life. One of those dogs who looks you in the eyes and you can see his soul. He was not feeling well at all though and he is at peace now. He will be greatly missed by many, especially his mama. He was lucky to have her.
I have a family member who is dealing with a very serious medical issue and is having surgery tomorrow. His infection is spreading and he has to have a finger removed in attempt to stop it. He has had quite the time with this and I know is probably wondering why this has happened to him. All we can do is pray in situations like this.
And I myself am dealing with a medical issue at the moment that I do not fully understand yet. But God does have the answers and I have faith that he is going to get me through to the other side.
I have a heavy heart tonight. I am still thankful for everything I have and for the people in my life. I pray that my friends and family and anyone who is reading this overcomes obstacles they might be facing with health issues, relationship issues, money issues, loss of loved ones or pets, unemployment, etc etc etc. Whatever your struggle is…it might not seem fair but there is a reason. Keep moving forward…
RIP Chewy ❤
