I feel good

Despite struggles and feeling uncomfortable about a lot of things for several months, I feel a lot stronger as an individual. I feel as though I am growing and starting to find myself again. My relationship with my daughter is blossoming, my house is becoming my own, I am taking good care of my dog, eating a lot better, and exercising a lot more.

I'm finding joy in little things. Its scary how I lost myself and didn't even know it. I am really interested in having healthy relationships in my life now. Although I guess the ultimate goal would be to repair my relationship with my mom, I don't know if that's possible.

I guess the motto I'm living by right now is this cool little biblical poem:

"Love is patient and kind;
Love is not jealous or boastful;
It is not arrogant or rude.
Love does not insist on its own way;
It is not irritable or resentful;
It does not rejoice at wrong,
But rejoices in the right.
Love bears all things, believes all things,
Hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends . . .
