Looking for Strength

They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.... Well I am looking for that strength right now.    

This past year has been rough.  My mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer, my sister was very very sick, my dad had a nervous breakdown when we thought we were going to lose my mom, my dear friend and xhusband became very ill and we almost lost him, my uncle, who was more like a big brother, was taken from us far too early just before Christmas and left us all in shock. I work hard every day to earn a paycheque in a job I love only to barely cover the bills. 

The Jen everyone knows and loves is Hardworking, generous to a fault, love my family, my friends and share what I have with who comes my way. This past year, it has been an emotional rollercoaster ride and the girl who normally takes care of everyone else is now in a place where she needs to take care of herself. 

When you're focused on everyone else in your life, you tend to forget about your own.... like remembering to take your meds, eat healthy or go to the gym. But when you're exhausted the last thing you have energy for is to take care of you.

In 2014 I want to find balance and get healthy so I can continue to be strong for my family and friends

We only get one time around... We need to be the best we can be so when our day comes, we are happy with how our life turned out

I just need a little help to get me to that happy place so I can continue writing my page in history

This will not be easy, but I'm worth  the fight.
