Yestrday is a Dream!

Yesterday is a dream, tomorrow is only a vision....But a well-lived today makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. - LIVE WELL TODAY and BE BLESSED!

Dx'd in '93, with Multiple Sclerosis while fighting my then employer for an illegal termination, with an 11 month old baby, I was one of three African American women in a battle against a Goliath. You would think the federal government would even follow federal law when in the act of terminating employees. Not in our cases. It seemed at the time it would never end. It lasted 16 months for me. A long story short, we won, that was 18 years ago. My son is 19 now a sophomore at an Ivy League Univ. and I'm still living in defiance against this thing called CCSVI/MS. I'm readying myself to retake/remake some things put on the sidelines for too long. There's nothing wrong in capturing a deferred dream/vision. If it's not yet lived, it's still waiting for fulfillment...and it still belongs to the dreamer/visionary.

GOD grants us the strength to overcome obstacles thrown at and thrust upon us...We just need to keep focused, address the adversities and be determined to be VICTORIOUS. GOD BLESS each of you to stand up, stand in and own the VICTORIOUS places held by GOD for you and only you. ~♥~

I BELIEVE

Yes, I BELIEVE IN MIRACLES....trusting in GOD'S PROMISE and living with and by FAITH knowing the POWERFUL SPIRIT OF GOD WITHIN does more than I can....My work is to do as guided and BELIEVE !

Romans 8:28

²⁸And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

This stated, on this day, I AM GRATEFUL. For me to profess this not having walked for the past 5 years due to multiple sclerosis and having more bad days than good due to complications of it is a miracle in itself. My physical life has been restricted from many of the magnificent things I desire....but......that too will not last. BELIEVE IN THE MIRACLE OF RESTORATION.  For anyone who has so much more on your side, your FAITH, YOUR BELIEF, YOUR ACTIONS will deliver you to a better place than just living in the negative places that begin in our heads. This writing is an extension of how I am being led to share hope. I KNOW LIFE IS GETTING BETTER as I live and speak GOD'S directions. 

After living with this illness in my life for over 40 years diagnosed since '93 and seemingly being stripped of so much because of it.....and I'm not crazy yet.......This is a part of my progressive testimony!.....GOD IS GOOD, IN CONTROL....... JUST BELIEVE, TAKE ACTION AND LIVE KNOWING THE BEST IS HERE and TO COME!

Until next time......TBC and GOD BLESS! 

 

 

My longtime friend of about 47 years sent me this email a few days ago. The message is so beautiful, and I WISH YOU ENOUGH TOO!!! BE BLESSED! I wish you Enough! Recently I overheard a Father and daughter in their last moments together at the airport. They had announced the departure. Standing near the security gate, they hugged and the Father said, 'I love you, and I wish you enough.' The daughter replied, 'Dad, our life together has been more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough, too, Dad.' They kissed and the daughter left. The Father walked over to the window where I was seated. Standing there I could see he wanted and needed to cry. I tried not to intrude on his privacy, but he welcomed me in by asking, 'Did you ever say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?' 'Yes, I have,' I replied. 'Forgive me for asking, but why is this a forever good-bye?’. 'I am old, and she lives so far away. I have challenges ahead and the reality is - the next trip back will be for my funeral,' he said. 'When you were saying good-bye, I heard you say, 'I wish you enough.' May I ask what that means?' He began to smile. 'That's a wish that has been handed down from other generations. My parents used to say it to everyone.' He paused a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in detail, and he smiled even more. 'When we said, 'I wish you enough,' we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to sustain them.' Then turning toward me, he shared the following as if he were reciting it from memory. I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how gray the day may appear. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting. I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good- bye. He then began to cry and walked away. They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them; but then an entire life to forget them. Take Time To Live.. To all my loved ones and friends, I wish you Enough!

.......A SUPER HEALING SUPPLEMENT......

No wonder I have muscle pain, spasticity, and neuropathy. There are times I think I'm so smart because my research about multiple sclerosis has led me to truths I believe are links to some of the dreaded disease symptoms and the course it has taken in my life. Well case in point, last week, I had a medical procedure and after a few days of feeling some benefits, the constant muscle spasticity I've been living with seemed more bothersome.

By last Friday, I began thinking again about some of the useful information I've learned/gathered and tucked away in this constant brain fog that is symptomatic of this illness. So, there it was, as it just was washed over my being popping into this brain on overdrive and over drag  from this illness....the light bulb moment....a missing element.....something I turned around and locked into my little storage cabinet where I sit and pulled out...... something I asked my son to buy for me before he went off to college last September that I used to take regularly a few years prior......something that may have kept me independent for the last five years.....IF ONLY! Yeah, if only I was smart enough to research the benefits of so many things that would help keep the debilitating symptoms of this disease at bay but not smart enough to continue using it for health maintenance. Surely, I give myself credit for not handing my life over in totality to the dysfunctional sometimes unethical professionals who never mentioned supplementation, but peddle for big pharma.

 

DRUM ROLL PLEASE, my inner voice revealed CALCIUM and MAGNESIUM was a missing link....... ........and from yesterday forward, on my life's journey, I will not live without it being a part of my daily intake........ 

You probably would think someone like me who has lived with symptoms of ms since I was 13 not knowing for 20 years in between and at times thought I was crazy would be a better steward of certain revelations.  After finally being diagnosed in '93 I should pay more attention to wonderful revelations that would have probably kept me walking until almost five years ago. In my defense, but no excuses, this is one of the indications of long term pain and suffering. Not having peace in one's life in a body that is to be shared with what should be more joy and pleasure than long term pains and suffering leads to so much mental pain too. I am grateful for knowledge, but when it's not being used to benefit and uplift, then what's the point. Thank GOD for the revelation of restored memory that leads to healing.  

Some of the effects of magnesium and calcium deficiency will surprise some, and I hope it helps others as it has already begun to help me again after only 24 hours. Now, to get the proper dosage for maximum benefit! Just see how the body reacts when it doesn't have what it needs to function properly.

TBC and BE BLESSED!

THE MAGNIFICENCE TO OVERCOME!

Often, we may say and feel that we can't do a particular thing, but the spirit to overcome is greater than that other negative little voice within. Even when we express that whisper it is always small against the magnificence of the power of the other voice that says WE, YOU, and I can overcome.

So, IT'S ALWAYS OUR CHOICE. What voice will we allow to navigate the course of this day, even our lives. 

CHOOSE TO LIVE THIS DAY. 

 

These truths/words are lived/written by a survivor of Multiple Sclerosis, dx'd in '93, and living with unknown symptoms over 20 years pre dx. That is over 50 years of my life, yet I refuse to give this disease its victory over me. This and other life maladies are not allowed to steal what I've labored for despite the obstacles, some of which when looked at with a different lens were and are gifts. 

This disease forced me into a wheelchair 15 years ago. Over 5 years ago, as I approached 60, I began to think about the things I did not do or needed to do before my journey here has ended. At least, I needed to try. One of the need to finish items was exploring how to  become an ordained minister.  Well, a few months after I was ordained, my son and his fiance asked me to officiate their wedding. Of course, I was honored to say yes. And, the icing on the cake was the wedding was in the Dominican 

 Republic. It was a magical moment. 

If you're going through something today, decide how you'll evoke change and redirect the course. Let's us allow that voice within lead us to our victories. We just have to chose to do our work, and It's not easy, especially living with this MonSter, but I claim my victories.
