Don't Talk Like That...

I write to find out what my heart thinks....
I am here to celebrate my life, to uncover my fears, to hold on to love, to grieve my losses, to laugh long and hard, and to learn how to live a full magnificent life with heart failure. I am honoring my creativity, and exploring all of my emotions out loud ...before anyone can say....."Don't talk like that!"

My only choice...



There are so many things in my life I will not have control of.  My choice, my only choice will be how I react to what is happening to me and around me.   I have the power to choose how I allow these things (events, people, and health) to affect my life and my happiness.  I have decided to be happy!  So many people think that is the easy choice that it comes easily without struggle or pain. They are wrong!  It is a decision that takes commitment and work, just like any other life choice, but I know in my heart it is worth it.  I am hoping the rewards when realized will be more than I or anyone else could possibly imagine, but even if they are not I can honestly say I am happy!

  3. The mysteries of this life never ever cease to amaze me. Thank you for following! Good luck with the defibrillator, I have found that for every negative thing heart failure has presented in my life, it has brought at least the same if not more magnificent insights and blessings. I hope it will be the same for you!

  5. Yes, I have found the same ....God has slowed me down so that I can realize that I have art hidden inside. I have been so darn busy that my creative heart hasn't had a chance to open! It's been a bittersweet journey that I am beginning to embrace. My Facebook following is "ur2ndwind" please stop by and add aNY suggestions or comments, as I am a baby artist :)
