Day 2715: Burning Up

Leave a reply

Burning yourself up to keep the world warm is not good for anybody– that’s my message to the world.

 

It’s 2 : 12 PM on day 2715 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Zephaniah 3:17,  have breakfast and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet –   A HUGE to Anon who donated $25  which brings the total raised to  $7 706 only $4 794 more to raise by June 17, 2018 to help 50 kids with clubfoot.

 

Today I realized that burning yourself up to keep the world warm is not good for anybody so from today onwards it’s God first then me everything else has to come 3rd for my own health and overall sanity.

 

Day 2041: Embracing the Unbalanced Life

Leave a reply

If you love what you do and do what you love balance is of less importance – that’s what I’ve realized.

 

It’s 12 : 36 PM on day 2041 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Revelation 18, have breakfast, hang out with family, learn one new thing – When Louis Braille entered the school for the blind in Paris, in 1819, he learned of a system of tangible writing using dots, invented in 1819 by Capt. Charles Barbier, a French army officer. It was called night writing and was intended for night-time battlefield communications.- and work on my 25 Smiles Campaign – yesterday Anatoli donated $25 and Benjinchachen donated $25 (thanks so much Anatoli and Benjinchachen :) ) which brings the total raised to $5 506 only $744  more to raise by 10 Jan 2017  (SO SO SO GRATEFUL to everyone who has supported this campaign so far :)  ).

 

Today I finally accepted that I would never achieve perfect balance in life trying to achieve balance would mean cutting into the time that I use to do the things that I really love doing and I won’t do that especially not in the name of living a balanced life.

Day 1088: Helping the ones you can

I can’t help everyone all I can do is help the ones I can – that’s what I keep learning  🙂

 

It’s 12  : 10 PM on day 1088 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray,  brush my teeth, read 1 Samuel 22, publish my Disability of the Day feature,  feed myself  boiled egg and Bran Flakes for breakfast,   tweet and Facebook about my campaign -nobody donated so far today but  Kate over at Groovy News Network donated $10 yesterday (thanks again Kate) now I only need to raise $70  in the next 40 days to reach goal :)  –  practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles and  stretch my hamstrings.

 

Today I realized I can’t help everyone all I can do is help the ones I can I try my best every day to help people but I always feel like it’s never enough when I’m doing something pointless like watching TV I feel so guilty because I know that we are only given a finite amount of time on this planet to do what we need to do I guess I still need to find the balance between trying to make my mark on the world and just being a twenty-two-year-old woman. Do you try to help everyone and feel like you let people down when you can’t?
