Overall, skin care ensures naturally beautiful and radiant skin.
Day in and day out, putting on this facade with my family and friends was wearing me thin.
I find myself constantly thinking of Covid-19. I’m neither worried nor feel safe. I’m down and trying to figure out how I can be productive while keeping my family and community safe
Throughout this experience I found myself. My diagnosis closed a chapter in my life, but my current journey of faith and confidence in myself is open!
Caregivers are real life superheroes who just don’t wear capes. They trade their capes for silent tears, sleepless nights and mental fatigue.
It didn’t matter I was lonely, scared, broken and confused. I had to do the work if I wanted to get better, so I did just that! Cancer, one-sided relationships, burdens and unhealthy habits have been removed from my life. I have stepped into new business ventures and put that well used ambition and tenacity into motion.
The word “normal” is no longer a word I use because life after breast cancer will never feel “normal.” I am forever changed and I prefer “okay.”
There’s just something about walking into an office covered in a color that’s almost synonymous with the disease you’re trying to discover you have. A disease that will change the course of your life as you know it.
I told myself I didn’t need a man to make me happy and that was true, but the life partner assigned to me wouldn’t walk away when I felt unworthy, struggled with self esteem and body image or when all the woes of survival came to disturb my peace.
When you have a soulmate, you can look beyond all of that and see the beauty and the creation that God designed just for the two of you.
