After a long, torturous chaotic year, it seems we have arrived at this bridge. It’s that bridge that challenges ever bit of who you are, pushing your fears to the limit. This is the time where you give up or push forward. I have arrived here so many times and turned back because the risk seemed to much and dragged my husband back with me.
I am sick and tired of being sick an tired. Being a comfort hog I always opt to stay right were I am…who the hell would be comfortable blanketed in turmoil and hurt more often than not? It sounds ridiculous don’t it? That’s been me for far too many years.
So many people who have inspired me because of there strength have crossed more than one broken bridge and have succeeded. They have grown, they are better for each trek they embark upon. I was unable to see that the tiny creeks I jumped across weren’t enough, I have to cross a broken bridge or more in my life to really move on!
So screw my fears, I am going to follow his lead and cross that broken bridge.

It’s always easier to stay right where we are become it’s easier to stay with what we know and are comfortable with, even if it’s bringing us down rather than step out into the unknown. I’ve stayed stuck in the same ruts for years and like you I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired. Just recently I decided it was time to get out of these ruts and move on into better things. It’s hard, it’s scary, it’s certainly stretching me but I know in the end I’ll be a better person because of it! Good luck & hang in there
