Bad things happen and how we handle them builds our future. There is always a glimmer of hope even in the most horrible events; sometimes just a sliver, but sometimes that is all we need.
My life has been turned upside down since my car accident. I lost my balance, my mobility, my job. I could barely walk out of my house before I needed help to get back, because I would have dizzy spells. I won't lie I did go down the more travelled road of the negative way of thinking. I was slowing giving up on myself. Then I heard the sliver of hope "gratitude". I started to realize the great people I have in my life that I can count on. I got to re-invigorate my love for understanding how my body works again. I started to see more opportunity's in life again. There is always opportunity's in life to become a better you and I am seeing them again.
I had found hope for me. I could let this car accident make my life worse mentally and physically, but I did not let it. I decide how good my future will be. I feel very confident in my next meeting with the brain doctor that I will be allowed to go back to work full time. Even if he does not clear me that is okay, because I have decided that I will continue to reach for the stars in my future. I know I will reach them someday, because I know I will never give up.
More bad days are to come, but I am ready. I will look for the sliver of hope, and if I cannot find it then I reach out to someone to help me find it.
