Lately, I've been feeling pretty down. I've been trying the mantra "fake it till you make it" but it just isn't working out very well for my internal happiness. I miss Tracey like crazy. Hailey has been struggling and recently we found out that she would have to have a second procedure to fix her two front teeth. Aubrey is a typical, attention seeking 5 year old. And I'm trying to start a real estate career to boot!
So I was so excited to get it. I am about 1/2 way into it and it is such a great read.
I have realized that really, I am pretty happy. I just don't approach things at with a happy slant. I have realized that my hubby thinks that I am happy and most of my friends think that I am happy. So maybe happy is just subjective. Now it is time for me to appreciate my life for what it is and to wash the ugly internal voice out of my head telling me that I'm not happy "enough".
It's time to just be Andrea and let that be good enough for those around me. And for those that don't really like who I am, I am going to have to be happy with that too.
I feel the same way! I think I might take up that book too, I need some perspective. My life has been incredibly hectic the last few weeks and I'm really starting to feel it emotionally. I recently have stated questioning my happiness.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely should get it. If nothing else, it is really interesting and funny. She is the mother of 2 so it touches on a lot of the mommy drains that we all have.
ReplyDeleteI think that happiness is subjective. I remember someone once telling me that I wans't happy, I just thought I was. That made no sense to me. If I think I'm happy, then damn it, I'm happy! That voice in my head is vicious too, and I often need to silence it just so I can remember that life really is pretty good.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are trying it! I think we're all happier than we think...but we get so bogged down with CRAP, it's easy to forget!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited to share my testimonies about the Good Work of Dr.Anuge who got me cured from herpes simplex virus (HSV1&2) with his herbs, I never thought that I would live on earth before the year runs out. I have been suffering from herpes, I had spent a lot of money going from one Hospital to another looking for a way to get rid of this disease, the hospital has been my home everyday residence. Constant checks up have been my hobby not until this fateful day, I was searching through the internet, I saw a testimony on how @Dr_anuge7 helped someone in curing his herpes disease using his healing Herbs, quickly I copied his email just to give him a test I spoke to him, he told me that he is going to provide the herbal cure to me, which he did, after I received his herbs and I took it as instructed. I was cured permanently from herpes. My herpes disease was gone. so I decided to share my testimony, that nothing is impossible with God, God used a man to heal me. No matter what you are passing through, no matter how deadly the sickness is and no matter what the situation is God that did mine is still going to do yours, people suffering from herpes, brain tumor, kidney disease, pcos, AIDS, ALS,copd, asthma, arthritis,herpes, Cancer,Hpv, any kind of disease, you can reach him now via Gmail address: dranuge@gmail.com or whatsapp +2348164866838
