I used to think that things were happening TO me, but now I realize I am in control of how I respond to event happening around me.⠀
⠀
For about a two year period, I had a lot of crazy things going on in my life. ⠀
⠀
🤦🏽♀️ Found out I had a brain tumor, and had to have surgery.⠀
🤦🏽♀️ Developed multiple sclerosis and had to change my lifestyle.⠀
🤦🏽♀️ Lost a portion of my job, and had to figure out income again.⠀
🤦🏽♀️ Was having relationship issues, and was struggling with depression.⠀
⠀
I felt like everything was overwhelming, and that I was not in control of my life. Everything was happening to me, and I felt like I was just a victim of many bad circumstances in life.⠀
⠀
However, coming out of the deep depression, I realized that these are all just things that occurred in my life, and they brought many benefits to me because I went through all of those experiences.⠀
⠀
I can choose now to stop being a victim, and use all of these circumstances for good in my life.⠀
⠀
I am saving myself one decision, one action, one day at a time.⠀
Be Your Own Hero
