Still Living...

I know it seems as though I've fallen off the face of the earth but this week has been a pretty terrible. Nothing I want to delve too deep into, suffice it to say, lying to yourself is truly the worst thing that we can do to ourselves. I guess the thing that I'm fighting the most is the tendency to mistrust. I'm not going to let "this" color my outlook on life and effect my daily interactions. I've fought my own insecurities very hard to get to this place that I am now and I'm not going to let a single event or person take me back to a time where I was always second-guessing everyone's thoughts, actions, intentions, etc.

Sunday, I thought I was going to take my last breath. Monday, I kept telling myself you have to get through today and by God's grace each day has gotten better than the previous and I'm sure this will continue.

Enough of that. Really. Enough.

On a happy note, my 16-year old brother has been in town this week visiting to attend a leadership development training at my job. I really have the utmost respect for single parent's around the world. It's so hard to get up, get somebody else up, drop them off, get to work on time, make sure they're fed... that's so not my life. I never realized how much my life centers around me and I've taken for granted the luxury of just having to worry about myself on a day-to-day basis.

We went to Six Flags last weekend, which was great and tomorrow we're going to see Cedric the Entertainer live... very excited about that!
