Its the thought that counts!
So my husband is pretty awesome and ive come to find that he listens to me alot more that i thought he did. One of the days that it was really cold and rainy i told him that one of the things i missed about living at home was that my mom would bring home potato cheese soup and corn bread! a couple weeks after that he told me "ill have a surprise for you when you get home!" So all day im pretty excited and i get home and hes bummed out that he couldnt do it that day. This happened a few more times before he was frustrated and said "well its not there anymore so i need to find one." Im confused already and ask him where? He didnt want to tell me because he would give it away! He finally told me that he went to find Marie Calanders to get me the soup, but its now a Carrows. He was not aware of the fact that he had to actually turn on that street and he would find it. Poor guy, but hes awesome for wanting to surprise me!! I have the best husband!!
Fearless ♥
"To me, “FEARLESS” is not the absence of fear. It’s not being completely unafraid. To me, FEARLESS is having fears. FEARLESS is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, FEARLESS is living in spite of those things that scare you to death. FEARLESS is falling madly in love again, even though you’ve been hurt before. FEARLESS is walking into your freshmen year of high school at fifteen. FEARLESS is getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again… even though every time you’ve tried before, you’ve lost. It’s FEARLESS to have faith that someday things will change. FEARLESS is having the courage to say goodbye to someone who only hurts you, even if you can’t breathe without them. I think it’s FEARLESS to fall for your best friend, even though he’s in love with someone else. And when someone apologizes to you enough times for things they’ll never stop doing, I think it’s FEARLESS to stop believing them. It’s FEARLESS to say “you’re NOT sorry”, and walk away. I think loving someone despite what people think is FEARLESS. I think allowing yourself to cry on the bathroom floor is FEARLESS. Letting go is FEARLESS. Then, moving on and being alright…That’sFEARLESS too. But no matter what love throws at you, you have to believe in it. You have to believe in love stories and prince charmings and happily ever after. That’s why I write these songs. Because I think love is FEARLESS." — Taylor Swift
I knew i liked her!
Recovery!
"It is not a sudden leap from sick to well. It is a slow, strange meander from sick to mostly well. The misconception that eating disorders are a medical disease in the traditional sense is not helpful here. There is no 'cure'. A pill will not fix it, though it may help. Ditto therapy, ditto food, ditto endless support from family and friends. You fix it yourself. It is the hardest thing that I have ever done, and I found myself stronger for doing it. Much stronger." — Marya Hornbacher
Keep fighting recovery is possible. God pulled me out of that pit and he can pull you out too if you let him :) its worth every second of hard work and the relationship with Christ that comes out of it is worth every hard day in the world. While the authors quote above is right you have to do the work yourself but i couldnt have done it without HIM! He is my strength!
