Expect Little Miracles

Rheumatoid arthritis can be extremely random. Random pains can appear suddenly. Every single day is different. One day you can walk...another day you can barely stand. But then there are those rare days when some disabilities subside; like when all your fingers start working again or you are able to get up all by yourself with no aid. Rejoice in those moments and take advantage of the day! Get out and take a short walk, buy yourself a new outfit, go out with friends, play with the kids, and go on a date night! 

Savor the moments. Isn't that what life is made of? A series of moments that make memories? Once we get diagnosed, we think about all the things "we can't do anymore." Get those thoughts out of your mind! Yes, I'd say that things are tougher to do, but not impossible. I choose not to let my disability be the killer of my dreams. I let that be the case in the beginning, not anymore. I was severely depressed. Then one day...I felt like God took that depression I had, and sunk it into the deepest part of the ocean. Of course I have painful days but I won't let the pain defeat my mind. 

So take each day with what it brings and find those little miracles in between. Live life!
