Sometimes I wonder what my body would be capable of if I had no diseases.

You know, like if all my body systems worked the way they are supposed to.

What would that feel like?

I imagine it would be quite euphoric.

Someday I want to know what that feels like… but I know I never will.

Most days I’m pretty good about focusing on the positive and not letting the hard stuff weigh me down.

Then there are moments where I’m having a symptom that won’t let me ignore it and I begin to ruminate. In those moments it becomes hard to not just let them go. I guess that’s maybe because in my mind I know that I shouldn’t ignore them. I must find answers.

If I’m not persistent and ask questions, who will be? I’ve learned that it’s my responsibility to take care of me. If I don’t have an answer, then it’s my job to find someone who can give me one. It’s never really good to ignore signals from your body.

What a beautiful and wondrous machine the human body is. Even if it doesn’t work exactly like it was designed to… it’s still worthy of love and awe. There are no mistakes or accidents. Each of us are what our Creator needs us to be.

I refuse to let a disease or two… or three, get me down. I will keep moving and pushing to be the very best version of me I can be.

Each and every day, it’s GAME ON! Let’s go!
