Overcoming A Sudden Blow

Sometimes things come at me that are out of my control. In the past I have retreated into myself and my eating disorder. I have had a somewhat sudden revelation recently...I am worth more than that. I have no control of the people around me and their reactions. I have a limited sphere of influence, in that there are many external things that just happen in my life and the lives of those I love. What I can control is my reaction to these things/people. I am finally at the end of my rope and am sick and tired of being sick and tired. (I know, cliché, but oh so true right now). I am choosing to choose "ME" and to boost my health, resources, sphere of influence. I am choosing to not be a "victim" or a "survivor." I am choosing to be "Rachel" and to be the best me that I can be, regardless of what anyone thinks, says, or does!

HOO RAH!
