We’re all tested as we go through our own personal journey of life.
Obstacles will be placed in our path.
A sign of true strength is in
finding a way to sort out what we will do with those obstacles.
We can lay down in defeat
or we can dig deep inside to find ways
to utilize them. We have to create the determination
of moving forward and never giving up.

Yes, you were in my thoughts. I hope your continuing to heal and feel that you are having progress. Be patient with yourself. Despite your responsibilities, healing carefully is important. Rushing too quickly can cause future damage. The laundry and chores can wait. 😊
As a perfectionist, I can admit to trying to tidy things up before anyone would come for a wellness visit. I soon realized that was silly but at great cost.
Blessings and healing prayer coming your way.
Namaste 🙏
