For months I have had the beast and medications have only slowed it down some. I am so tired of complaining. I hate to discuss it. I am crippled by it and rarely leave the house. I don't want to see or talk to anyone and for days on end I will not answer the phone. The only conversations I have with my loved ones is regarding my pain, medications etc. I know they are concerned but our conversations are always the same. I have allowed this to damage my confidence and self esteem. Today I will not wallow in self pity. I will count my blessings. I will work on my shortcomings and trust God will not give me more than I can bear. The beast shall not take my soul!
