Feeling Nostalgic Today

[Veronica]

I was standing in the shower thinking about the past and it just dawned on me.. .... My life is so much better now. God has blessed me so much with everything I have in my life. 5-10 years ago, I was miserable... I was an empty shell of a person. It took a situation happening for me to wake up and become that person that I buried inside me. Now, I have an amazing husband that loves me (yes he drives me insane at times but thats normal cuz- hell.. hes a man! haha).., I have 3 amazing boys.. a job that I am finally getting credit and appreciation for all my hard work (by getting my promotion!) .. I have a beautiful house that I can see my boys growing in their whole life. And of course, my family and friends. I am greatful. 5 years ago, you wouldnt of been able to convince me it would of gotten better... But it does.. It truly does.

I love life! I love MY Family! I love my husband and my boys!

ok im done.

LOL Strange what your mind goes through. mine never stops

Seriously though....It's great when things are going well to just pause and be grateful. The best happiness is the kind that comes from the everyday stuff.

You're right, seriously, we should all take time to tell our partners how we feel about them.

Life can change sometimes - from good to bad or vice versa. I have also been experiencing a change in my life within the last couple of months. Although in terms of sociability, I do still have to work a lot on me, but at the moment, people are responding differently towards me. And moreover, I feel as I have never felt before: stable, good, strong... It is a great feeling and I do not want to miss that anymore.

 

[Alien Allen]

Very happy for you V

Tis a good lesson for people that when things look bad there is a light at the end of the tunnel

Sometimes we need to provide the light ourselves though

 

[usandthem]

It is amazing how much can change in 5 years huh? Glad you are in such a good place.

 

[Schnaufi]

My life has changed within 2 or 3 years. Or, my attitude towards many things, at least.

 

[redliner]

Congrats. What you went though makes you appreciate what you have today.

 

[Veronica]
