Today I'm writing things I need to read myself. https://divinewalls.com/whatever-is-true-whatever The first qualification this verse gives is "whatever is true." That's the very first thing we should consider when we decide if we should allow certain thoughts precious time in our minds. Today I want to talk about something that's true, because sometimes false messages have a way of sneaking in. They do that with you too, when you least expect it. Today's truth:  I am enough. I'm no longer a size 6. I'm enough. I'm not tall, with long legs, and I have to hem everything I wear. I am enough. My complexion isn't flawless. I'm still enough. I have suffered more heartache than I thought I'd be able to survive. I am enough. I have inner scars that will always be a sign of the things I've gong through. I'm enough. I now wear a scarlet "D" that will cause me to be judged by some. (I know they aren't the ones wh...

It's been too long since my last post. I have nothing to say for myself, except that life has been happening. I've had a migraine today, so this may not be very eloquent. But something has come to mind a few times lately that I want to discuss. If you've read my blog before, then you know my story, or at least part of it. It's not pretty by any means! I was a young woman hoping and praying to meet an amazing man who would sweep me off my feet. Then I met someone who seemed so amazing, and we were both smitten, and we got married and lived happily ever after. Except we didn't. We got married, and after a while I slowly started to realize what a huge mistake I had made. I was in a painful mess. You probably know that, but it's a recap for any first-time readers. (And please check out some of my other posts) Every once in a while I'll be in a conversation with someone about things that I went through in my marriage, and I can't help but think, "W...

A few days ago I was in my former town and was able to see so many friends. It was amazing! I think people were able to see that a lot of healing has happened in my life;  I'm way different from how I was when I left. That caused me to start thinking about my healing process and consider what the things may be that have helped me along the way. When I left I KNEW I was making the right decision. That gave me a peace, even though my life was upside down. I definitely could have left sooner, and I had plenty of reason to, but I waited until I knew it was absolutely the right choice. Because of this, I've never looked back or doubted my path.  My support has been incredible. I know I've mentioned things in this regard before, but I've always had people who have had my back. When I needed someone to talk to, when I needed help moving, when I needed a hug, there was always someone. I'll always be grateful.  I told myself the truth about myself and my situation. ...
