True to Who I Am
02/01/2024
In my pursuit of self-love, I've come to realize the intricate layers that define me. Unraveling these layers feels like a lifetime endeavor, as I wear numerous hats and hold diverse positions. The restlessness within me continually seeks growth, maturity, and progress, pushing me to explore new horizons. Yet, surprisingly, I find moments of complacency.
My mind, a realm where thoughts and ideas dance freely, dictates the rhythm of my day. Thoughts can either energize me or drain me of vitality. Lost in my daydreams, I can lose track of time, a trait I developed from my love of fiction novels during my formative years. Imagination became my refuge, allowing me to construct entire worlds within my mind.
As I navigated through adulthood, this imaginative side persisted, affecting my focus in various aspects of life. It wasn't until our eldest son was diagnosed with ADHD that puzzle pieces started falling into place. A subsequent self-assessment confirmed what professionals later diagnosed – I too had ADHD, with a notable emphasis on ADD.
Accepting this revelation initially left me feeling mentally challenged and inadequate for success. However, delving into the intricacies of an ADHD mind through research brought illumination. Understanding the why behind my racing thoughts at night and my intense focus during the day became a transformative journey.
The diagnosis did not diminish my worth; instead, it unveiled a tapestry of talents bestowed upon me by my creator. Creativity, a driving force behind the whirlwind in my mind, became a gift to be cherished. Trusting the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I learned to embrace and stay true to my authentic self – The "ME" God Made!
