Hi there, Verol65,
O yes, the “Why me” question(s) can become such an enslavement and a thief! It robs us of enjoying the blessings we have had and continue to have.
My Dad was my example..early 40s lymphoma, 50s bladder cancer, 60s kidney cancer and 70s prostate cancer. He lived to be 88. He taught me that Cancer isn't a Death sentence, but a Life sentence.
What held him together was his faith in God. God is what holds me together, too.
Focusing on the Blessings we have in our lives are the Gifts that keep on giving.
Im glad you are redirecting your thoughts and are focusing on your 4 precious children and are choosing to see the other blessings in your life.
These children are gifts and you will discover so many more when you take time and meditate on the Good things.
Considering writing these blessings down. When you get discouraged or aren’t feeling well, or get depressed, open the book up and read the many things you've been grateful for. It will help chase and squash that enemy of discontentment away.
Seize This day.
❤️
