Henry Ford once said "whether you think you can, or you think you can't - you're right." It is a saying that still makes me want to roll my eyes (mostly because of the adolescent & teenage years during which my Dad used to tell me this, I - obviously - used to spend a lot time rolling my eyes at things people were trying to teach!). But eye rolls are now a good indicator that though something may be cliche it is no less true and being reminded of said things is good for you!
I am here today feeling refreshed and relaxing. If I think of how I felt and what my body was battling just 6 days ago it is remarkable to be in this state now, both physically and mentally. It's good to remind myself that I am "one tough lady" to quote my friend Dandre! It's true. I am an active participant in my awesomeness. I am tenacious. I am dedicated, motivated, and some days medicated - Lol! None of these is a bad thing. I have really grown these past 12 months - and have a lot to show for my hard work and healthy eating now too. As of today I have lost 27 lbs and that's healthy for this body. I am not at all focused on the scale but am happy to report this success here.

I am gratefully taking my Juice Plus+ and sharing it internationally now and have a small but loyal Juice Plus clientele and am building a team of people who want to share this also, work from home, and earn some money from a company with integrity that allows you to grow and advance regardless of your educational qualifications or past experience. They also allow you to move on and up the company ladder without shenanigans or politics. I am grateful to my friend Heather Binns for sharing this with me and publicly want to say thank you for her patience, and wisdom when I first became interested. She spent months explaining and teaching the Juice Plus science and business to me and helping me take the 1st step because she knew there was something there that could help my Lyme and my finances. I would not be here Between Health & Wealth Avenues without her guidance and friendship. I am enthusiastically carrying the torch myself now. There's plenty to go around folks! We do not need to live in fear, blindly accept the fate handed to us, or choose between fighting and fleeing. There is middle ground - you can stand and fight Lyme, pain, poor health, and the unbelievable and corrupt forces that keep us tethered to this life where we have few options to get treatment and get better.I've said it before & I say it again - I cannot fix my neurological disease or the damage done to my body from Lyme but I can heal my mind, body, and spirit.
Actively doing all 3 regularly has helped me build a life and residence I like, am proud of and that are a fair representation of my awesomeness. If you are really unhappy please think about what I am saying. After 11 years of Lyme this last year I have advanced - in all aspects of my life. It is hard work - so is being unhappy. It is at times, painful, so is disease. It can be frightening - so is fighting loneliness. It can be overwhelming - so is isolation. It can be exhausting -so is a daily life where you make poor health decisions. I hope for you to have hope. I have hope. It's pretty great to live like this and it's really tough work!

It is so hard to not be hard on yourself even when you cannot control the disease many of us know that we are, in many ways being asked to do so simply by having so many issues diagnosing, treating, paying for & recovering from all the Lymes (yes there's many type
"You cannot find yourself by going into the past. You can find yourself by coming into the present." (Eckhart Tolle)
And because I shared my background yesterday - having grown up a priest's kid (PK's unite!) , I am comfortable today sharing a lovely prayer from a book that a seminarian friend wrote called Simple Prayers for Complicated Lives (BY JENNIFER PHILLIPS):
WEARY IN ONGOING ILLNESS
HOLY GODTHE HEALING I HAD HOPED FOR HAS NOT COME.I AM WEARY OF BEING WEAK & HELPLESS RENEW,TIRED OF PAIN AND OF BEING PATIENT.IN DESPONDENCY I CRY TO YOU, EVEN THOUGH I WONDERWHETHER YOU HEAR MY PRAYERS.
YOU ARE THE GOD WHO BRINGS FORTH LIFEAND CONTINUALLY RENEWSTHE FACE OF THE GROUND.
YOURS IS THE POWER FOR HEALING.YOURS IS THE LOVE WHICH EMBRACES MORTAL FLESH,BEARS ITS WOUNDSAND DIES ITS DEATH.NOTHING I FEEL IS ALIEN TO YOU.
SO, STILL, I CALL OUT FOR YOUR HELP,LET THIS LONG ILLNESS NOT DEFEAT ME, NOR DEFORM YOUR IMAGE IN ME.
LET IT NOT DAMAGE THE PERSON I WOULD BE FOR YOUAND FOR THOSE I LOVE.
STAY, BESIDE ME, DO NOT LEAVE ME COMFORTLESSLET ME REST AWHILE IN YOUR PEACE!AMEN.
