This week I wanted to share with you what I thought was going to set me back, and undo a lot of the hard work it had taken for me to get this far with my healing.
When illness threatened to rear it's ugly head again this week I started to get caught up in all those negative thoughts and feelings that I had lived with for twenty years. Had the hard yards been worth it, only to end up in exactly the same place? I could have chosen to stay in that same place, after al it was familiar territory. I would at least know what to expect!
The problem was the last six months of healing had given me a glimpse into a world I hadn't seen since I was a child. It was a world of happiness, excitement, hope and endless possibilities. It was a world I really wanted to be a part of. After coming to this decision, I was able to experience something really extraordinary.
It seems I was able to stop the pain and illness dead in it's tracks. I know I shouldn't have been surprised about this, but I have to admit I really was. Illness and pain will not be following me into next week, or the next. The hard yards are definately worth it. I'm workth it.
So there will be no white flag above my door!
