I love Facebook. Don't get me wrong, there are many times I despise it, but for the most part, I love it. Especially these days. It helps keep me connected to family and friends near and far. It has games, which I will admit isn't always good, but sometimes brainless activity is nice when the children are occupied. But the thing that I really love about it is what you can find. There are hidden gems everywhere that people have posted. Whether it's a quote or a picture, you are able to see at least one thing to help encourage, motivate and or inspire you.
Today no exception and I am so glad I found it when I did. A friend on Facebook posted a photo of someone at the top of a giant hill with the title 'Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting....so get on your way!' Love it!
I need to apply this type of attitude to me everyday. Plaster these gems all over the house or something. These past few weeks have been an emotional roller coaster for me. You can probably tell just with the few posts I have posted here. Adjusting out here has been a bit harder on me than I thought it would be. It helps that I have a few friends already here, but I can't expect them to hold my hand everyday to face this place. I need to find the courage and the inner strength to do it on my own. So if it means taking these hidden gems I am finding on Facebook and plastering them all over my house to inspire, motivate and encourage, well then that is just what I am going to do. A dear friend just wrote last night that I am worth it. And I am! I know I am. Time to go claim my mountain today and see what it brings! What will yours bring?
Great post Kristy! Post them on your mirror and on your fridge! Put one in your car! I've read that specific quote before and its a good one. I am really struggling here as well. I am working my way back up the scale. I cannot afford nor can I find the time to work in one of the meetings offered here, so if I am going to get back on track I have to do it on my own. I really want to lose the weight again, its starting to depress me, so if I am serious I need to just do it (as Nike says).
ReplyDeleteYou are awesome Kristy. I am so thankful for you and your kick butt caring attitude. You rescue me.
Love you dear friend, no matter where we both are!
