11/8/2019 0 Comments Why?Over the last month I've put a lot of energy into trying to make sense of this journey and trying to line things up for a treatment cycle, when in reality I know (and was reminded again) that so much around conception is in the realm of Mystery and beyond my control. As spiritual beings we are meaning-making beings and it's in our nature to ask, "Why?" when things aren't going in the way we would desire. What I've discovered and believe to be truer every day is that everything happens. As much as we may want there to be a reason, sometimes there simply isn't... other than, this is life. Hard things happen. We are broken people living in a broken world. No one is immune. What I also trust to be true is that reaching out for support and surrounding myself with community is essential. Being gentle with myself and practicing good self-care (rather than self-indulgence) is also essential. With both internal and external support, I can handle the everyday frustrations and even the seemingly impossible. God doesn't cause the hardship or the pain but is lovingly present in the midst of it all. And as I continue to wait and heal and grow, I'm always learning new things. All things, even the things I would never choose for myself, can become pivotal parts of my story. I am grateful for the lessons learned and the transformation experienced. And I surrender once again. Everything happens for a reason, isn't true. However, we can find a reason for everything that happens.
