MHWA week three prompt one.
There have been quite a few times in my life when I’ve not wanted to get out of bed and face the day. The worst times were when my children were small. The days seemed endless and lonely, no family in a new country. I suppose the reason I still did get out of bed was because I had no choice! How amazing it would have been if someone had said “just go back to sleep, I’ll take care of everything.” Just for one day. However it never happened, and in my worst moments, say when the kids all had gastro, I’d sit amongst the wet sheets, endless crappy nappies and I’d laugh, (maybe a bit maniacally) at how bizarre my life had become.
After that I tried harder to put life’s trials and tribulations in perspective I suppose.
Since then I have made a point of always trying to look on the bright side, if have found if you look for a positive in a situation, you will more often than not, find one. Occasionally a positive is had to find, but time itself has a way of healing most wounds.
Luckily I do have a husband that usually says something to make me smile.
