Are things going well with your complex kid but you are waiting for the "bad thing" to happen?
I totally get it....I've felt that way too.
Of course we worry about our children…having kids is like having your heart walking around outside of our body and do whatever it likes. The feeling are as strong as if it were ourselves but we can’t control this little person.
When we are on the negativity loop we look and wait for the bad stuff to happy and that’s where so many of us end up.
In the loop…over and over.
Instead of enjoying today and looking for a positive or a gratitude (anything at all, could be something tiny) …we are thinking f@$& "What if today is the day something goes wrong" I get it!!
Not only does it steal any joy from the days things are going well it also keeps us feeling on edge and anxious.
Waiting for the shoe to drop is super common and we have ALL been there. More than once.
…but I also know living in the "what if" isn’t going to help him NOT have a reaction/seizure/anything else.
You know this too. There is freedom in the living in the "what is" instead of what might be. It’s all just a story we made up anyway.
Where your focus goes your energy will go and if you focus is on pain and suffering and the "might be" your energy will be there too.
The only truth is here and now…so …be like Elsa…let it go…and enjoy the peace xxx
There is no amount of worry that will control tomorrow. It only takes away today’s peace.
