The say the only constant in life is change. Often times the precursor to change is uncertainty and sometimes anxiety. These last 6 months have brought about many changes for me, none of which I was prepared for, and most of which came with anxiety, depression, and a host of other issues. Happily though I have weathered this most recent storm and came out the other side, stronger, wiser, and more capable than I thought possible. It's funny how when faced with adversity we still have a choice. We can choose to accept what life throws at us and try our best to adapt and overcome or we can choose to let the changes consume us and alter who we are and negatively impact us. And yes there are additional options and even combinations of options, but the bottom line is we must not give up. My son has a poetry assignment for school and the poem he has chosen to memorize is called "Don't You Quit" As I am listening to him practice I hear in his words, words that are inspiring and applicable to so many situations. So with life's twists and turns, and there will be many, remember even when there is uncertainty and doubt, cry if you must....but don't you quit!
