My thoughts

[MissAnna]

Good evening or good morning all you wonderful amazing beautiful people on here. 

Have you ever received news that completely changed your life. One moment everything was completely normal and then the next everything just stopped. 

As if time had stopped, there was no going back and you were just stuck in that moment. Reliving and replaying everything. 

So you come to a crossroads, where do you go from here? What happens now? Where does life take you, and who are you anymore? 

These questions I have been pondering for the past couple of days. It's terrifying when you get news that completely changes everything. 

So the biggest question is what do you do? Do you give up? Do you surrender to the news? Do you allow the news to overtake your life? 

I can honestly say the first day it did, it consumed me and I was terrified. 

But now little by little, I'm slowly seeing that I'm still me. 

I'm still who I've always been, this will not change me or define me. I will be a champion, I will win this race and I will succeed. 

The road might be a little bumpy there might even be a few twists and turns. But in the end I'm going to win. 

So for all of you who are going through something that has changed your life, has made you question everything and made you even question who you are anymore. 

I want you to know that you're not alone, you are seen and I will always stand in your corner cheering you on. 

We aren't alone in any of this, this doesn't define Who we Are, we are still amazing and beautiful. We are wanted and valued, we are so loved as well as Worthy of being loved. 

To all of you on here, don't give up, don't stop running your race, and don't ever think you are alone. 

I'm always here if anyone ever needs a friend or just someone to talk to. 

We will win, we are champions and we are amazing!

Until we meet again remember you matter, your loved and you are worthy of loved.

Your question takes me back 39 years to when I was first diagnosed with chronic neurological pain. The news was like being struck but also a relief because at least it was no longer unknown. The diagnosis gave me something tangible to learn about and concentrate on. 

I can't say it didn't cause me pause but at the same time I never let the thought of it defining me take root either.

Life changing news, no matter one's reaction, is a catalyst for something for sure.

YES THIS. You are still the exact same beautiful, wonderful, amazing Anna! 
You make Xena warrior princess look like a chump!

The diagnosis gave me something tangible to learn about and concentrate on.

This is very relatable for me. It's exactly how I felt after being told that I had scoliosis, as an adult in my mid 30s. Like, you mean I have these various mobility issues that aren't just because I'm fat and lazy? Well, shit.

But having something tangible to explain stuff, has really allowed me to stop being so hard on myself. Particularly when I can't do certain physical movements without pain, or have issues with stairs. Using stairs used to be very embarrassing out in public, because I know people stare and question validity. But now none of that matters to me and I feel like I have breathing room to just be disabled without any self loathing.

Not that other people's opinions technically mattered before, but at least now if someone confronts me, I'll have the words to accurately explain my issues beyond just going ow.

And not just because of judgmental idiots, but learning about oneself is always a good thing.

It may be difficult now, but you are the sunshine and that is something that cannot be hidden away. 

Love You Viva ❤️

Reading your words felt like standing still in a storm I am both shaken and inspired all at once.

You’ve always had a way of reaching deep into the soul with your honesty and strength. Even in the middle of your own storm, you're handing out umbrellas to others. That’s not just bravery, that’s heart! pure, radiant, lionhearted you.

Yes, life sometimes hits with the subtlety of a freight train. One moment you’re on a steady track, the next you’re picking up shattered pieces of a reality you didn’t ask to change. But, my darling girl, you didn’t shatter! you shined!! You didn’t surrender! You stood up!! You didn’t let the news define you! you’re redefining what it means to be unbreakable!! And make no mistake: the champion you speak of? That’s not some future version of you. That’s who you are right now! each step forward, each deep breath, each honest word you share. You don’t become powerful later… you already are.

You said “I’m still me.” And that, my love, is more than enough. That’s everything. You matter. You’re loved! not just by many, but deeply and fiercely by this Daddy who sees every bit of light in you, even when you forget how brightly you shine.

Keep your chin up, my brave girl. This race isn’t about speed, it’s about spirit. And yours? Unmatched.

Always in your corner 💙

Thank you, for still loving me and seeing even though I'm standing in the rain

I forgot to mention previously;

I hope whatever life has thrown at you, you have the strength to see it through and find inner peace and heal from whatever it is.

So, my apologies if I'd come across as self-centered and unconcerned with whatever you're going through. It was late and I was on the verge of sleeping, but still wanted to share my pov. My point was supposed to be about mindsets and how they impact our decisions and opinions in life, but I half-baked rambled about my own experiences in a failing attempt to do so.

I hope you're doing well. ♡

Thank you, it was life changing but I will not allow it to define me or keep me down 

I promise you are okay and thank you for your kind words
