To my MOM with Love~ a poem just for you~



     Hope my readers are all having a low pain day. It has been a raining most of the day, but im keeping my spirits up and focusing on my blessings. Tonight we were going to go to the gym, but are going tomorrow afternoon instead because my hubby was feeling a bit under the weather. This entry in my blog is Dedicated to my Mom, of course, she has no idea that I am writing this, but I really wanted to let her know in a very special and personal, yet public way what her support and love has meant to me through my ordeal of dealing with a chronic disease.
  My mom is an incredible woman, a mentor, a best friend and someone who has always been there for me no matter what I have gone through. She has gone through her own struggles, but she always reaches out to those around her. She is always thinking of others above her own needs and wants!
  I realize how blessed I am, to have the kind of relationship with my mom that I do .I know many are not not as blessed and that breaks my heart, it really does. Whether it was my depression or my cancer that I had in 04 or 05, my rape or miscarriage, my mom’s presence was always felt. She never judges me or pushes me away; she sets aside her own pain to listen to mine. How did I become too fortunate to have her as my mom? I really am moved to tears, when I think of the love she shows me, which does not waver.
   Ever since I got my diagnosis of Interstitial Cystitis and fibromyalgia, her love, has carried me, her words of encouragement have strengthened me repeatedly. I do not thank her enough, I try, but I do not think it’s nearly enough for all she does for me. She is one of the closest people in my life; she is engraved on my heart. There are days she just calls, just to tell me she loves me, just to give me a encouraging word or read me a poem, or a short encouraging story.
 This woman, my mom has the gentlest spirit; she is like a angel that walks this earth with me. When I count my blessings, I count her twice, because I know her love is without limits, not strings attached, no expectations. Just pure genuine love, from a mother to her daughter!
   To my mom with LOVE, sealed with a kiss from me to you! Here is a poem for YOU!
                                                               “You gave me Wings”
God knew when he gave me you, that you would be just the right one to raise me and love me. you brought me into this world with love, you gave me values, you gave me strength, you gave me a example and you gave me wings to soar
You gave me wings,  my heart knows your heartbeat by name
Your love has carried me, it was the wind beneath my wings!
You gave me understanding, a safe place to rest my head, when others shut me out
Our bond cannot be broken, its one of a kind. Honest and true, your love to me and my love for you mom.
You gave me wings to fly and you believed I could soar, thank you for your love and for so much more!
   With all my Love mom~ I thank you from the bottom of my heart! I wouldn’t be able to endure the pain I do if you weren’t a constant presence in my life~

Poem~ "Not Another Day"

                       Good evening readers,I know its been awhile since I wrote in my blog and I apologize for that. This entry won’t be a regular entry I feel led to share with you another one of my poems to encourage your weary souls. I know that a lot of my IC and fibro and many suffering from chronic pain are dealing with a lot, their health is failing, and they feel overwhelmed, pressed down from so many different angles.       Today my pain is so severe, I was late getting my period, and we know how that flares our IC, but I forced myself to go outside and just sit in the sun for a little bit. It was a time of refreshment and peace. The sky was so blue, as blue as can be, the sun was so warm on my face and the clouds so puffy. I then spent a hour just reading my bible, I felt the Holy spirit drench me with His peace. I put myself aside and ...

I Give Permission

  Put away that smile and brave face. We are not required to stay strong, we all feel weak at times. There is no shame in this. There are more than enough days that I lay in bed and just cry, until I no long have tears to cry with. I cry because of the relentless pain, I cry because I want to be free of this monster that tried to wreck havoc on my body. It does to my body in many ways, but I refuse to let it do that to my soul. This is about giving ourselves room and permission to cry and to let it all out. I need to be honest with myself, I hate this I really do, and WE all do. It’s not fair it feels good to be real and raw and speak it the way it is. I know many of you will be able to relate to this. The day’s I’m bedridden, that’s tough. But I give myself permission to not be on top of it all. It’s ok to cry its ok to breakdown, I give you permission. I’m sure you’ve heard this before; TEARS are a cleansing to the soul and spirit. God gave us tears, it he wanted us to always ...

Poetry~ "Its In Moments Like This I Live For"

Another night of endless pain, hard to remember   the life i had before all this pain began, another night I face, the world sleeps as I lie awake thinking of another time, another place, a place far away from all the pain and the tears, if only I could go back so many years.     As I sit here with tears falling from my eyes I cling to the words I   know my Savior said” never will I leave you, never will I forsake you” its in moments like this I so desire to be wrapped up in the arms of my loving Lord.     Outside I can hear the river flow on by, and the small waterfall at the end. it’s the way I love to   begin and end my days, hearing the sound of God’s creation   the sound reaches into my soul I feel its echo through my body, I sense the peace and the tranquility it brings its in moments like this, amidst the pain that I live for.   Day after day as time ticks away, the hours slip by, they give away to days, days turn into weeks...
