I'm Starting to see the silver lining/blessings in the dark clouds of my life.
My wife went through 6 hospitalizations recently for mental illness. This was over a 4 year period including one suicide attempt.
During her ordeal I suffered depression, dove back into my addictions for relief, had suicidal thoughts myself and in general just didn't give a shit
I am recently divorced. Her choice, which means she is vastly improved and much healthier. YEAH!
NOW ITS MY TURN to get healthier!!! And here's the silver lining, one of the blessings.
I'm living alone and don't have to contend with all the persuasion and back wash about changing my diet coming from others. So easy to throw out foods that no longer serve my Health, when I am the Master of my realm. Its hard enough to change, harder still when you are starting and the people around you see the same old you, no evedience that this new path will lead to anything new, I think most deeply they fear the change you represent which inherently invites them to change.
If they can kill the messenger they don't have to accept the massage! |
