Don't apologize for your choices. Own them!

 

On July 7, 2023 I decided to write an important post about when I got this good quote from the show Heartland SE 11 EP 14 at 42:00 minutes in.  One of the characters said to another "Don't apologize for your choices. Own them!"

I think that's such a good one – that whether you made a good one or not – that you accept them and where you are at – and to not crazy stress about them – as the out come will be what it will be.

Like for me I'm not exactly where I'd like to be in getting better, and I still give in so frequently to not the greatest decisions, but I know in the end I want to fully get better.  So accepting that's where I am at right now, that I may have trouble now, but that doesn't mean I always will as I keep working at it🙂.

This is appropriate for me today, as I suddenly found out that a big food company was deciding to stop making all these quick frozen foods meals that I use at times, and I’m sure tons of other people do to.

This really got me down, but an interesting thing is normally I would get super crazy anxious and worry about it.  But this time though I was still struggling with what am I going to eat for frozen heat up meals. 

I was like, well maybe I’ll get some of them you can while you can, but also being honest with Elohim (God) of where I am at, and talking to my Mom about how hard this really is for someone with a food addiction/ED type person.  That alone speaking up of how hard things would be, instead of keeping it inside, was a bigger step, which I didn’t realize until I opened up to Elohim and my Mom.

I've been keeping this to myself or just my husband for so long, my struggles with food and life.  That it truly has taken such a toll on both of us.  So I'm glad that I have more options now for reaching out.

Yes I can see myself going back and forth a lot, but very recently, I have seen a change in me that though I fall back, it doesn’t seem to far, and I’ve move forward more than I’ve fallen backwards – and I think it's connected to the My Rebirth Hope Day post I am more ahead in steps/changing/adapting places than I realized since then.

It's kinda crazy how I'm just starting to realize that the fight I feel like I've lost so long ago, that Elohim is strangely bringing it back me more than I could ever imagine and realize in small odd ways. I always thought that you had to have this Crazy Strong Fight Stance to Fight, but that just doing a little thing of being honest even if you aren't feeling the greatest, but still knowing you want to fight in the end will make a difference.

We can remember that every step you move forward gets you that much closer to the life that you need, and He can carry you during those harder ones, it’s just admitting you need the help alone in also in the right direction and be like Hey Elohim (God) I can’t do this on my own and help me where I am at.

Psalm 91:1-2   He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.  I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

 

Here’s an upbeat song about having the shackles can be broken by our Elohim (God) so that you dance and left up your hands so you can praise Him – as you ask to take those heavy burdens off of you.
