I can't remember most of my childhood. This includes being born through high school. I'm not sure why this is. Maybe I had some trauma? Maybe I just have a bad memory? Either way it's sad that I don't remember certain things but also nice that I have forgotten the bad things. Or at least don't hold onto them.
My kids are in middle school now (the worst) and I'm watching them go through friend drama, puberty, the ups and downs of new schools and new schedules and new teachers. It's hard. Maybe it's designed to be hard to set you up for the rest of life?
And then I look at my close family and friends who are handling what I'm going through the best they can. I have guilt over making them worry about me. I definitely try to hide a lot of of the bad stuff and bad days because I don't want to be a burden.
I saw this quote the other day about life being 10% what happens to you and 90% how you handle it and it really stuck with me. I think overall and handling this Cancer situation really well and I'm proud of myself for that. It's not easy on anyone, but I hope you can take time to find the positives today? I hope you can find some goodness for your soul and I hope you know that you're loved and important.
Enjoy your own Happylajd today,
