I am not a religious person…but…

Daily writing prompt
What brings you peace?

One of my favourite motivational quotes (and I apologise for the cheesiness of it) is:

“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass…it’s about learning to dance in the rain”

Vivian Greene

Sometimes I feel that I go through life confronted with a headwind. I want to keep going forward but something (money, mental health, feelings) just slows me down.

I feel that I’m on the right path when suddenly doubt and anxiety are thrown into my face.

I call these periods my “black cloud” times. These are times when I find it very difficult to move on, I lack motivation…I lack strength.

During those moments I feel like it will never end. I’ll always feel this way.

Yet it does end. My positive feelings remerge.

When the rain pours, and the sun starts to come out, a rainbow will appear.

When I see a rainbow – I am reminded that the rain will stop and the black clouds will go away.

I was inspired to write this post after just seeing an amazing rainbow.

I’m going through some changes at the moment, my body is changing and my mental health is suffering a bit – but I know…I will get through it…and I will emerge dancing.

Thanks for reading,
