Just for today


I am taking my life in my own hands.  Spending time with the girls.  Applying for jobs.  Prepping for a lecture tonight.  I am somewhat filled with peace.  That "somewhat peaceful" feeling will suffice for today.  I am not grinding my teeth.  I am not stressed out.  I will not ask "what if..."  True peace it is not, but a vast improvement from 4 months ago.  I do not have to force myself to smile. Life is grand.

This is lovely to hear. After your last post I have been praying for your peace of mind. It seems that my prayer was answered and even if it is only for today that is fine. I will keep on praying for you. Enjoy your girls. Take care of you and lean on your higher power. The more you experience the letting go the more the peace will grow.

Thank you for sharing this, it is great to hear about the good days as well as the bad and they are so important for everyone here for they are the stuff that makes hope REAL.
