Pep Talk

Mark is doing pretty good. Day by day, week by week - we just keep trying. Working hard and trying to find Joy each day. Not much has changed. His pain from the Viral meningitis is all but gone, skin GVHD is stable, energy level is declining as he tapers off the steroids but overall he is doing good. Slow progress, but doing good.

I wanted to share some solutions I've found lately:
When I'm....
Tired.... breath deep.
Unmotivated... pray.
Hungry but not meal time... drink water.
Saddened by life's unavoidable twists... pray.
Board..... wait, I'm never board!! Too much to do.
Tired of talking about it all... read God's promises.
Out of answers... listen and then go to sleep.
Frustrated by the things I can not change... find the JOY.
Scared about the future... pray, write and breath.

Follow the link below to watch a great little video that I really enjoyed.
Some of my favorite quotes:
 
The world needs you. Stop being boring! 
I'm on your team. Be on my team.  

Not cool, Robert Frost! 
But what if there really were two paths? I want to be in the one that leads to awesome. 
What will be your Space Jam? What will you create to make the world awesome? 

We can cry about it, or we can dance about it. 
We were made to be awesome!
You've just been pep talked!
