How easily I almost forgot

I'm not going to lie, today could have been awful...

I woke up with an intense migraine. Seriously, that is the WORST. All I wanted to do was crawl back into my super warm and comfy bed but I couldnt. Kyle was on his way home from work and my amazing three littles were slowly awaking as I could hear their blissful sibling chatter.

Life has been so busy lately with nursing school, the children, and our "behind the scenes" of misery that taunts our every inhalation and exhalation...

It is so easy to get wrapped up in negativity. Especially when the misery tries to drowned you in it.

With the migraine, my massive to-do list and knowing that after today it would be another two days before I saw my hubby. Grrrrr.
Why does life have to throw everything at us once??

I headed off to take the older two to swimming and Kyle started his to-do list. I love watching them swim! But,why does everyone have to stare at screens? Whats the point of "watching" them when in truth the screen is being watched...And the other people there, geesh- dont they have anything nice to say? I'll I could hear is complaining.
I was excited to get out of there! I get home and have to bolt out to make it to my haircut.

As I'm driving to my appointment, my mind just continues to flood with negativity. The skies are dark, its raining and freezing cold... actually it just SNOWED IN MAY!!! Ridiculous...

Then, I see light shine through the clouds and something that resembled a cross.... I pulled over to the side of the road and snapped a picture.  I prayed and cried. I sat in peace looking at this beautiful sky. Within minutes, positivity overcame me and my energy was cleared.

There is ALWAYS light after darkness. 

I needed a visual reminder to stay positive and not to allow misery to sedate me. 

I love my life. God has blessed me with an amazing husband, children, health, and happiness. 

How easily I almost forgot. 

Thank you God for reminding me
