Hi everyone I hope everyone is doing well. I want to write this post to bring some uplifting in these trying times.

I recently had a test for covid because had similar symptoms. I tested negative which in my world is still not out of the woods. So basically negative could also be a false negative meaning you can still have but not have infection show up on the test. By the way I have OCD. So good news is bad news as my other suffers out there understand.

So anyways my point I want to make is life is so short. At the end of the day we only have results from the daily choices we have made. It’s up to us to stop being so wrapped up in one thing and just breath and enjoy these moments. Our kids grow we age and now is the time for change. It seems hard but if we try to be honest with ourselves and live like our life depends on it. Then its plausible. You are strong and I know this because just by getting through a tough time and coming through the other side shows that. Live like it may be our last days. You may just find peace. So take a deep breath. Slow down and live in this moment.

So since Ive been sick and looking at worst case scenario in the face and feeling as if I was going to die. I realized that I didn’t want to make excuses or waste anymore time on my OCD. It can take over your life. I wanted to actively work on techniques to get better. It made me realize I didn’t want to waste anytime in negativity and appreciate life.

We don’t know how long we have. We do know how we want to live. So I promise you if today from here on out you live with purpose. Live to enjoy others. Live to be positive. Live to take steps each day to help with your OCD. Live to not be so hard on yourself. Live to love. Live to be kind. Live to be mindful and not let your emotions control your actions/words. Live loving your beautiful self.

YOU WILL BE HAPPY

Life is truly short. Hug your loved one. Do what makes you and your family unit happy. You can be the ruler of your own destiny. I believe in you. You beautiful human being you. 😘🤗
