What's Important to Remember

I have club feet. I am not club feet. They are a part of who I am. They are not who I am. 


I experience chronic pain. I am not chronic pain. Pain is a part of who I am. Pain has shaped my life in many ways. Pain is not my life.


I have struggled because of my club feet and pain. My struggle is not just my club feet and pain. Struggle is a part of life. Struggle is not all that life is.



All that I am includes things that are difficult, and things that are less so, things that are neutral, and things that allow me to soar, things done to me, and things I do. I am not any one of these things. I am all of these things.

    I really, really like this a lot. Thanks for sharing and if it is okay I'd like
    to print it out and put it on my fridge and my positive book.
