Does this sound familiar? Do YOU feel like YOUR cup is always full? I personally feel like my cup is always overflowing! Overflowing with craziness! Or…should I turn those thoughts around and say; that my life is full of a wonderful abundance of things?! ha ha….
My day to day life can be messy, overwhelming, busy and frustrating. Can you relate to this? I am sure your feeling me here friends, right? Life-kids-house-spouse-animals-family-school-activities-household responsibilities- bills-appointments-grocery store- extracurricular activities-employment- the list goes on! A Moms job NEVER ends!!!
MY PASSPORT OF LIFE
So many things in my crazy, chaotic, yet adventurous life I can blog about! But this year is all about self compassion, enjoying and embracing my Journey. So I am going to do that! Through my hardships I have discovered who I truly am. It’s been a very long road… the road of self discovery and self compassion. Have you made it there yet? It’s not easy is it? I promise you though, there is no greater feeling! I hope I can help and inspire you to live the life you deserve, to live a life you love!
I am an Autoimmune Warrior on healing Journey, a recovering Type “A” personality, I have a Son with Aspergers and mood disorder, fibromyalgia and an eating disorder, as well as a few other rare health issues. Another Son with sensory seeking behaviors that lead to ADHD like qualities and also he has a severe life threatening tree nut food allergy . A husband that is loving yet stubborn, hardworking and loyal, and sometimes makes me crazy! I Am a Ex-Teacher, an Empath, I am into Holistic living and and I am Natural minded. I am creative, enjoy cooking and love to craft. I am frugal and great at finding bargains! The beach is my calm place, it heals the soul! I have a Gypsy Soul– I love to travel. I was always the one you would call for help, advice and I was the first one to lend a hand.
My boys are 9 years apart and have completely different personalities and views on life. One is analytic-my rule follower and the other is the adventurous and the determined one. So you can imagine how interesting my life is! Do your children have different personalities? For me personally, I think it is good to have it like this. Life is always an adventure, never a dull moment and it keeps me on my toes at all times!
I am a wife, a mother, a daughter, a friend.. a daughter in law, a neighbor and I wear many other “hats” in the community. I get so busy with LIFE that sometimes I forget who I am… does this ever happen to you?
Do you feel that your Cup is Always Full?
Saying that your Cup is always Full is not necessarily a negative thing. Remember, We are in control of our thoughts! My life and my experiences have made me who I am today! I am grateful. Some days I may drown in the chaos, but I have to remember I am a warrior and I am here to help someone on their Journey.
The time has come….
For years my husband and friends have told me that I needed to write a book or start a blog. So many things over the years that I was encouraged to blog about; Crafting, Being a Mom of a child with Aspergers, My adventures with my younger son- “Adventures of Myles the Mess Maker”! Frugal finds, Travel, Preschool Teacher -Chronicles, Parenting advice, Arts and Crafts for kids, Clean Eating, Holistic remedies and lifestyle, Chronic illness, battling Autoimmune Disease and the ups & downs of it all, Healthy Living ,Spiritual Healing, the Paleo diet, AIP lifestyle and so much more.
When the time is right, it always falls into place and RIGHT NOW, THE TIME IS RIGHT!
Some may call them excuses but it was lifespan’s obstacles, not excuses that stopped me. Life does get in the way! I always had too much going on, I was too sick and fatigue or I would worry that with my neurological issues that I couldn’t do it. I didn’t want to fail. I was so embarrassed that I might not be “Perfect” at it. When the time is right, it always falls into place and RIGHT NOW, THE TIME IS RIGHT!
