Hello to all. I’d like to put in a word about various challenges we all face from the day we are born. I turn age 80 this year, have had asthma continuously since age two, have PMR, a son on every other day dialysis, etc. I grew up in a children’s home, was rejected by both parents who remarried and started new families that did not include me, got pregnant in college, have had 3 husbands. But one thing I’ve learned is that we often speak our own success or failure! In other words, every day I take deep, full breaths, stand straight and tall, and say “I AM!” or “I CAN”!, as in, I have the power to be weak or strong regardless of any challenge. It all depends on the WORDs that I choose to think and/or speak. Of course this is a continuous routine, but amazingly effective. “In the beginning was the WORD.....” I hope this is helpful to someone. 😊
