When is Enough?
Do you ever feel as though you are at your breaking point? Do you feel as though you are being pulled so thinly that you literally might break?
Rest assured that what you're feeling is normal and you are not alone. You may be a single parent struggling to make ends meet, be there for your kids and also trying to make a little time for yourself. You may be in a relationship that isn't working out and you are fighting to save it but the other person in the relationship isn't meeting you halfway. Perhaps you have a drug or alcohol problem or live with someone that does; all of those life styles can be draining and cause an enormous amount of stress on you.
Stress can make you ill. Not just physically or mentally but spiritually ill as well and when your spirit, the last part of you to give in, gets ill - you can become depressed and even physically ill yourself.
It's important to get yourself in a good place emotionally and physically to keep your spirit healthy. If you're struggling to make ends meet, rebudget your finances and make time for your children and yourself. There are always things you can do without and start looking for better employment. If you believe you are worthy, it will come to you. If you are in a bad relationship or live with someone that is abusing drugs or alcohol, resign yourself to the fact that you can not change anyone until they want to make changes and you need to grab happiness for yourself.
Simply ask to be shown the path you should take in life and you'll find that you'll be answered and shown the way.
