It's so easy to look from the outside and think everything is perfect in everyone's lives. It's not, and it's okay...it's real. What I have learned is that everyone has seasons in their life and we're not always in the same season. Which is why we shouldn't judge/compare...easier said than done. At Mommy Connection, we find it a great release when someone shares how they gave themselves a mommy timeout- for whatever the reason. We cry, laugh, and discuss our less than perfect lives. It's comforting to hear that other families/moms/kids have the same obstacles. Many of which are blessings! It's a choice to be happy, content, positive, real, and truthful.<br />My dad has always taught me (more through his actions than his words) to be positive- not fake, but positive. The glass is half-full kind of thing. It's funny tho- positivity can be taken as fake- which I don't care to oblidge.matchshoterxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05018377167651897627noreply@blogger.com
