Hypothyroidism & Food

It's been two months since visiting the specialist about my hypothyroidism. Something that hasn't left my mind. I'll admit, it was a rather defeating moment for me after realizing that I was not going to get the answers that I truly wanted and felt I deserved. When you feel as all hope is lost...you feel confused, hurt, sadness, anger, and you even may want to give up. I've never been a quitter, but that thought had crossed my mind a few times. But then, I decided that all I needed was God and to become informed on my own.

I started doing my own research. It was more overwhelming than I ever expected. So many sources, so many different pieces of information. But I didn't allow that to stop me, day after day...and night after night...I kept searching for answers. Truth is, prayer is what helped me through all of this. See, no matter how down you are or how alone you feel, God is always there for us.

This Is What Living Feels Like

Exactly one week ago I sat in this room packed with 1,500 other people waiting for an experience of a lifetime. Music blaring, lights glowing, and the excitement that you could literally feel from everyone who was there. It was electrifying. I still get butterflies when I think about how I sat there and watched my life on play-back...every single event, every single memory, experience, situation, feeling...to how I got to sit in that exact seat and wait for what was about to happen in the next 3 days.

I truly believe that nothing is coincidental. That every single thing has purpose, reason, and rhyme to it.
