November 20, 2012 22 Days of Thanks 2012 - Day 22 I am thankful for my body. I think we all have a tendency to take our body for granted. We never really think of the things we have that others dont. We dont really understand that some people live in pain on a daily basis. We try to understand eating disorders and why people can do things to their body that we ourselves might not be able to imagine, but its hard unless you are the one in the situation. Having the mind to take control of your body and teach yourself the things you need to be healthy and strong is the first step and a difficult one if you dont have the eduction or mindset to do do.

February 10, 2012 There have been times in my life where I thought that my life couldnt get any worse. I have been through some things in my 31 years that most people go a lifetime without (and should go a lifetime without). When my life was at its lowest I couldnt imagine continuing on... I had no idea what my life would be like and how changes would affect me. Rather than taking that internally as a poison, I decided to embrace my life and use every negative as a positive. I have done my best to use the hurt, the pain, the sorrow into making me stronger and more passionate and its given me a new outlook on life. When bad things happen I do my best to really stand tall and be strong. Sometimes that works, and sometimes it doesnt... just like everything else... I look at my life now and know that even if I told you all the things I have been through you may not believe me when I say that I am one of the luckiest women alive. I have been blessed to have people in my live who have t...
