Hm-mm. That's what keeps coming to me today. Maybe I should be wearing pads. I simply don't know. I truly believe that life is all in the getting back up when you have fallen but when you can't find that foothold and keep falling or rather bouncing...maybe you do need to invest in some pads to help you until you come to a rest.
I am not talking about money investment because lord knows...that is not where I am right now. I am talking about physic padding that can help you as you weather this time in your life.
Here are some pads I am using today.
I am making a list of what I am grateful for.
I am making a list of the people whose lives I know I have made a difference in.
I am making a list of all the times I have overcome things.
I am making a list of all the times I quit and how that felt.
I am making a list of all the people I worked with as a HIV/AIDS case manager who would have given anything for another day..no matter what struggle they faced.
I am making those lists and turning them into padding and getting back up on my feet. If I cannot find that foothold...then I will make a new one.
Until that happens...I will surround myself with padding...it should help cushion the bouncing. At least that is my theory . I will let you know how it works.
