Lyme disease can F off. There I said it.

I feel like I’m stuck in limbo. I know what’s

I feel like I’m stuck in limbo. I know what’s wrong with me, but I’m not actively treating it (by which I mean, trying to *kill* lyme and all its friends). My doctor has me trying to boost my immune system and reduce my inflammation before I start treatment. I think it is making me anxious because I know what is coming, and I just want to get it over with already. ⠀
⠀
And I think this has been my biggest struggle: being so lost in the past or preoccupied with the future that I’m not able to see what is right in front of me. I’m trying to remind myself that every season in life will serve its purpose, that at the end of this hopefully I will have gained something bigger than the things I have lost. I’m trying to remind myself that it is possible to find happiness in uncertainty, to trust the path that the universe has for me💙⠀

“Your now is not your forever.” This statement

“Your now is not your forever.” This statement has the power to empower you or terrify you. Knowing that bad times won’t last forever, but good one’s won’t either. A reminder to live in the moment regardless, to try not to lament over the past or wait passively for the future. Hoping to live more in the moment in 2021 and start figuring out more of what makes me 💙 ⠀

Feels like every time I start to get my footing a little, I get smacked in the head with a tidal wave. This year can fuck right off 🙃 Thank you to everyone who has showed me such immense kindness in the past week (here and irl), it means more to me than you will ever know💙 ⠀
