Broken....

How many times do we feel this way? Whether it is our spirit, our bodies or our attitudes...I believe that in our brokenness we turn outside of ourselves and realize that we cannot do it alone. We must have help, either in the form of family, friends or our GOD. It seems when everything is running along smoothly, we do not turn to each other and we sense that "I am okay...I can do this!" But the fact is...I cannot, not without GOD or family or friends. Everyday my life is touched by these outside forces and I am truly grateful. I do realize that I need to let them in and allow their comfort, care and concern. I need to let them know of my needs and accept my weakness to realize that the strength comes from working together towards a common goal. When I strike off on my own, I meander all over the place and take twice as long to get to where I need to be...or I get stuck in the quagmire and flounder until I surrender self and pride. There are somethings that I find easier to share the burden of. These past couple of weeks I have needed to submit to the knowledge and expertise of the medical field. I have heeded their advice and put my health in their hands, to correct or discover the next move. Again realizing how much I take for granted the days I wake...just wake and feel healthy and fine. I need to keep on with the course of action to be pro active in staying that way. Remembering that today counts and not to put anything off till tomorrow for we have no guarantees that tomorrow will come!
