Family, g’day again.This idea snuck into my head today and I thought I would share it and see where it goes. Everyday, all day find a way to succeed. Failure is okay if it used as a learning experience. Failure with nothing learned just the failure is not good. I can not count the number of times I have failed in my ms life, far too many to count. The good thing is that I learned from those failures. What not to do, the consequences of my actions., I learned, sometimes the hard way but I learned, hopefully “YOU” will think twice and not make such silly mistakes. We are all human and far from perfect ( my assumption) so forgive yourself and learn from your mistakes. There are few and fast rules for our disease. Rule 2 there is no cure, rule 3 it is supposed to get worse. of course there is
RULE 1 YOU CAN NOT DELIBERATELY CAUSE YOURSELF HARM.
Thought I forgot rule 1 didn’t “YOU.
This is aa journey, not to a destination, a journey. The only destination as Human Beings we have to a grave. Life with Relapsing-Remitting ms (RRms) for all of us is a journey. This journey that we are all on can be as hard as “YOU” make it. It will not be easy, “YOU” are sick with an incurable progressive illness, after all. BUT’ it does not need to be black, full of pain loss and suffering. “YOU’ my ms sibling do have some control. Not as much as “YOU” once may have had, but “YOU” do have some control. Look for and find the areas that “YOU” do have control in. Embrace them and nurture them into something bigger. Something that can really make a difference in you life and perhaps in somebody else’s. Give yourself time, be patient allow this to take a little time. It will come, this is a journey. It ends at the destination so drag it out as long as “YOU” can. enjoy your ms journey. Learn from it. Pass on your wisdom and experiences to others. Do all that “YOU” can to give your life worth, and maybe some joy. Success can be anything “YOU” want it to be.

a life well lived with a lot of learning might be an idea
