So here's my latest rant. Why do women never think they are good enough? We put our bodies on the back burner as we have children. We always think of others--From the time we get up in the morning until we go to bed at night. We are strong. We are intelligent. We are always trying to better ourselves.
Yet I constantly feel that I am lacking. I could have dealt with that situation better. I could keep the house cleaner. . . blah, blah, blah.
Well, no more. I read a post by the Sutters that got me thinking. It linked to an explanation of a woman who was killed in a train accident. She suffered from Bi-polar. She posted notes to herself all over the house such as: I am strong. I can only be controlled by me. I love being me.
What an example. I really need to be more positive with myself. I am strong. I am raising two boys in a world that is crazy. I am living in 400 sq. feet for crying out loud. And you know what? I really love it. Now you may be asking if I am crazy and not the world. However, I love that it keeps me real. We don't loose anyone and we live on love. Yup!
Live it up baby!

I hear ya on this, Sara. My self-talk drives my crazy with negativity. I'm going to have to put up some post-it notes for myself.
Thanks for the reminder!
I have been thinking about getting some giant sized post it notes for BIG MESSAGES to me. Plus, it's cheaper than framed art!
You are better than good enough.
Ok I don't know if you just put this link on your other blog or I just didn't notice it before cause this is my first time here! But I must say I read every word of it! And I loved it! You kept me up past my bedtime;) But that's OK my hubby's took off this weekend for work, yep last minute was needed out of town dropped and left. Didn't have to worry about anything;) I did manage to convice him to take his oldest son though;)
I love the way you write Sara! I laughed, I cried. In fact it made me really miss the good old day's when we could just rant together about what ever was buggin us! And we always did end up laughing! Oh I have very few memories of those years that don't include you!
Thanks for always being there!
I love ya buddy! Tam
