Can you carry a baby in your stomach for 9 months and survive hours of labor or getting your stomach cut open and ripped apart? Can you cook, clean and talk on the phone while you're taking care of kids? Can you bleed for a week and not die? Can you walk in 5 inch heels? Can you cry all night then wake up the next day like everything is okay? Remember guys, women are only helpless till their nail polish dries

Gratitude

My mother wrote this:

Thought i would share- Today, I will awake in gratitude for my full life, my love and my energy
I will appreciate my peace and tranquil mind. I am loved, I am full of joy and passion.
Today everything is working out for me. I will follow my heart. I have peace and tranquility.
When the chatter and outside noise invades my peace
I will remind myself, all is ok and everything is always working out for me.
I do my best in every way today and every day. I know I will have the results I seek. I am aligned with source and my Gd is with me today and every day. With his guidance I can not fail. I am inspired and feel so blessed and fortunate today and everyday
My day is filled with beauty, I am able to recognize all my gifts. I am safe. I am in peace.

I have faith in my ability today to shift my thoughts.
I will be positive and focused. I am supported. My angels are with me today and everyday and I know I am loved.

I will strive today to be in a constant state of gratitude.
I will recognize any shift to a lower level energy and will have the tools I need to get to a higher vibration. I am most grateful for the knowledge of knowing.
Today, I will connect to others, I will share, laugh, smile and give with an open heart. I will love easily.
Love and abundance will flow to me.

Today will flow with ease and grace and opportunities will be abundant. I will feel connected to everything and everyone.
Today I am so fortunate to recognize and thrive in the beauty of my life.

Love,

National Eating Disorder Awareness Week

(This was written by a friend of mine anonymous)

It's national eating disorder recovery week, and I am proud to be here to share my story.

Despite all the things that you think may be terribly wrong with you, love yourself. Love yourself.

Tattoo it on your brain.

I can think of so many reasons why you should love yourself, but here’s just one: It is incredibly dull and uninspiring to be around people who do not love themselves.

I spent many years being anorexic and a compulsive over eater and feeling like I was a monster. I’m sure I was not much fun to be around and it is very challenging to love someone who fights you by holding up a mirror of hatred toward themselves.

Here’s my challenge for you today: Take a picture of your face and remember that in 10 years time you will be amazed at how gorgeous you were. Be amazed now.

Identify something about you that you may not adore and find a way to at least laugh at it or like it, even a little bit.

Be good to yourself. You will train other people to do the same.

And guess what? If they aren’t good to you, you will still have your old standby who is always good to you: YOU. Pretty much what matters most at the end of the day. You being good to you. The rest will follow.
I hope that, for those of you in recovery, you are finding some meaning in this crazy journey, and that you know you are not alone. Recovery is one of the most amazing gifts you can offer yourself, despite its unpredictable nature. It’s okay to fall down because no one is perfect. But that’s the point. Learning to embrace the imperfect pieces of me (both physical and emotional) has been the most challenging piece of all this, and through my own indomitable will- I have succeeded.
For those readers who know someone in recovery from an eating disorder, just love them like you would love anyone else. It may not always look like it, but I promise you, that person is doing the best she or he can.
If you’re struggling with an eating disorder, call the National Eating Disorder Association hotline at ‪1-800-931-2237‬
