What do you see when you look into the mirror? I mean really look? What I see is a 40 year old (not a teen anymore, not ready for retirement) woman. A wife, a mother, a daughter, a Christian, an employee, a referee, a fighter, a survivor, ... I’m not a quitter, unloyal, lazy, pessimist, ..... I love my husband, my boys, my family, my dogs, my country, my home, my.... I hate backstabbing, controversy, mayonnaise, ... My point is that when we look at ourselves, we should see someone we are proud of, love, admire, ... We all have a few issues that we all work hard to deal with, control, fix (where possible). We shouldn’t let our issues define us, control us, depress us, .... All too often I get depressed and need to work through it to come out the other side. It usually happens after a setback, confrontation, or the like. Now look around. Really look. There is so many that are dealing with problems that make our issues seem so small and insignificant! People all over the town, county, state, country, world who are suffering, losing their lives, their families, etc. I count my blessings daily! I thank God for my life, my family, my country, my way of life. I wear a diaper. So what? Please send this to me next time I get depressed.
