Just a thought

I am not just Relapsing Remitting ms(RRms) I am more than that. Perhaps it guides my life, drives my life. Dare I say it is my life. I have to think more about that one. I am sure that I do not mind if it, is my life. it does give me a purpose, a guiding light. I am not unhappy, about that I accept it, I know where I am going. Not every detail of everything butat least a direction. I write because I can and I think maybe there is someone somewhere that has similar thoughts and questions that I have. "YOU" my friend are not alone. Far as long as I can I will be here. I will not judge "YOU", I will not understand everything that "YOU" go through and I most certainly "DO NOT" have every answer for "YOU. A lot of them I feel can be found by trying every moment of every day to understand yourself and this illness. It is not simple and easy, it just is. Somebody somewhere says that "YOU" are never given more than "YOU" can handle. I prefer that "YOU" never experience more than "YOU can accept or handle. "YOU" may have to really go outside your box to find the strength to handle some things, BUT and there is always a BUT Within "YOU" smolders a fire. As "YOU" progress on your ms journey, your fire burns a little brightly. "YOU" find strength, determination and a tenacity that "YOU" may never have realized that "YOU" had if it was not for this affliction. Let your ms be a strength, not a constant never-ending source of weakness. Think how do I, "YOU" find the positive in this? There is one I know it. I just have to find it.

I disagree with you on this one, Royce. 'ms' is a part of your life, but it should not be your life. Sometimes, this is easier said than done. If some activity needs to be done differently, I adapt, adapt, adapt. :-D

hmm ms is my life when I think about it. Certainly not a negative part of my life, but I feel that it makes me and I am not sure that I would be who I am without it, and I am not upset about it.

Okay, but I think of you as a homo sapien who just happens to have 'ms'. You are much more than 'ms', I am certain.

Keep Smiling, my friend,

Carole :-D

I agree with you Carole, as you say, ms is unfortunately part of my life, I have to accept that and get on with my life and live in the reality that it has its confinement’s. Blessings Jimeka 😊

'ms' is part of your life, jimeka but it shouldn't define you. You agree. That is all that I am trying to say :-D
