The Phoenix Rises


Saturday July 7, 2012

Day 11 – I am beginning to feel like a person again! I have a new nickname for myself. I’m going to start calling myself “The Phoenix.” Just when I look like I’m down and out for the count and I start to give up on myself, I rise from the ashes like the Phoenix and rise again to fly! I know that sounds a bit dramatic, but that’s exactly how I felt today. I got dressed this morning and ran some errands at the store with Ashley. I was able to go to a neighbor’s bridal shower and visit with friends. Later this evening I was able to go with Lincoln & Lexy to another friend’s wedding reception and visit with her for a time. It was a wonderful day and I am so grateful to not only be alive today, but to FEEL alive today. I have to keep believing in myself and practice that quality of patience!

I will rise again and again, and again!
