There has been so many times I have heard people say to me that you are just very lazy, my dear.
This is your own fault, you have done this to your self.
I live with the guilt and shame every day, living with chronic pain
which will never go away.
The negative judgement and comments of other people that I have been quietly hearing in the background before going to sleep at night.
The depressing and stressful memories over the years are constantly streaming through my ears and brain playing every day and every night.
It can be explosive at times as a titanic waterfall.
I can hear the inner critic, the inner fear that creeps around and festers in my brain.
The thing in life which is telling me constantly you will never be able to survive, you never cope with living a good life.
I silence that voice more than ever to this very day.
I tell it that it has no more power over me or no place in my own life.
I tell it to stop saying that I'm not good enough I'm worthy to have an good life just like everyone else even when the critical voice has been by far the loudest for an very long time and is drowning out the voices of every one else around me talking in the same room.
I drown that negative voice out with music, sunshine, art, singing and poetry.
I regularly do my daily physio exercises every day.
I keep fighting the good fight in my own way for both me, my daughter and my partner's own happiness and life too.
I keep trying and doing my best with every thing maybe one day things will be going more my way.
I could feel like I'm winning in life for once but until its my time I must be patient and wait never give up and accept that these are the cards that I have been in fact given and have to deal with in my life.
I need to start using these cards in the game that we all call Life.
