my sister-in-law (Patty Johnson) sent me the above video and it struck me so hard that I literally was shedding tears. She has been supporting my blog since the inception and has been giving me positive feedback, again proving how blessed I am to have such an amazing family and friendship support group.
The amazing thing with this song though is that it is reassuring to know that sometimes it’s OK not to be alright. We are human, not machines….so we will have our off days and we will have our positive days; maybe it’s ok to have a mental illness or any other illnesses, but as long as we understand that it’s all OK.
I am blessed……..with amazing family members and friends.
I am lucky…….to have a medical to cover my chronic medication.
I am confident….that I can make a difference.
I am loved….by so many.
I am Ok…..because I am allowed to be.
I guess the point I am trying to make is, sometimes when we are having our off days (a Bipolar Mood dip), even though I know it’s hard and difficult (trust me I really do know); we need to try and count the blessings we actually have in life.
Hopefully you are all having a happy Father’s Day today. So take it easy guys and remember sometimes we need to remember to be kind to ourselves too.
From me, peace out and take it easy today.
Sleep tight all!
