We know this to be true. How?
Look at the many people that walk around with physical and mental conditions, yet with a peace and joy about them.
Their pain still exists.
And sometimes behind closed doors, it’s not cute.
But they continue to LIVE.
They refuse to allow their conditions to dictate their joy and be the foundation of their identity.
We chronic illness warriors can forget we are not our conditions...but how amazing to have a community and family to remind us where our identity is truly rooted in.
Don’t perpetuate or magnify the pain by believing lies.
It becomes more painful than the actual symptoms itself.
