Live Simply
Love Generously
Care Deeply
Speak Kindly
Leave The Rest To God
I received this quote (author unknown) as a part of an email from a friend. We should strive to follow this advice. I believe "Leave The Rest To God" is difficult for some. If I leave me worries and troubles to God, I have less stress. The physical act of "letting go" is different than merely thinking about it. It takes practice. I'm so much better at letting go after a lifetime of practice. I hope my children will be able to give their worries to God sooner.
In relation to my Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue, living simply, loving generously, caring deeply and speaking kindly, all provide my illnesses a better chance of "laying low."
Learning to "Live Simply" has brought its challenges. I must break down my life to short, simple experiences but enjoy them to the fullest. I can no longer participate in outside activities as I once did. I must be more selective, rather than trying to accomplish more than I can handle.
Yes, letting go is good. I have been working on that. Boy is it hard though! I hope to have it more down pat soon.
ReplyDeleteThis was a great post and so true to those of us with chronic pain. Letting go has been something I have to work on daily. As Heather said...it's hard to do. We were always the ones who could take care of everything and now we have to watch everything we are doing and learn to say no and except it. A learning process forsure!
ReplyDeleteFibromyalgia is a painful and for Relief from vicodin recommend making it a very powerful analgesic that relieves pain. You can buy online without a prescription, but as indicated Findrxonline control because it has side effects.
