2012 is starting off to be a great year but sometimes I still struggle with Celiac. And then, in my time of frustration I remember this quote: “I’m healthy, I’m happy, and I feel great.” A long time ago, while on vacation with family friends their dad made us get up every day and yell it as loud as we could. I used to roll my eyes and think wow, really?! And now it’s something I say to myself fairly often.
There is the constant reminder in the back of my head of those who live each day sick and unable to get out of bed. They wish for nothing more than to be able to get up and just go to work or to go fishing. So when you think that living with Celiac is hard, or life is hard in general, repeat this quote to yourself and remember that each day you have a choice of what you want to do and how you want to live. What you put in your body so that you can fulfill your dreams is your choice. And when you aren’t happy, healthy and feeling great – fake it. Tonight I’m making halibut in a mushroom sauce, tomorrow conquer the world. (Thank you Mr. D)
