I can B a winner,
Letting go is Loving,

Smile & let others in on the secret,
There is nothing I can not handle,
I am my best friend that I have,
I have solved problems,
I can handle this,
I am a capable human being,
I deserve 2 love & 2 B loved!!

BP Road of Challenge

BP Road of Challenge, Adversity, & Obstacles:

This journey called Bipolar disorder is NO
typical journey that just anyone takes; yes a lot of people have it a lot
worse, in their lives and some a lot better. But I speak of the journey we are
all taking together. This journey is complex ,and challenging, yet a learning
experience, it can ruin relationships, marriages, careers, and one self-worth,
and zap us of our inner strength.
At times it is overwhelming all-consuming and
we preserve each day. Yes, it will knock us down, beat us up, rob us and threaten us. And attempt to destroy us after time. But we preserve each day, we may fall down, but we get up again, and again. This is survival at its best!!

They say you cannot pick your relatives but you can pick your friends. Friendships are something you can’t buy in a store or wish for. They are special bonds woven through similar experiences, struggles, challenges, heart aches, as well as success, and unforgettable memories. We need to treasure our friends they can be our support life savers when family just doesn’t understand. Friends listen, never judge, or tell u that they don’t care!

WE all need friends just as we need air to breath.
You will have a better tomorrow if only you think about today. You will not have a good day if you just sit around, and think of yesterday. Our BP journey is like a Domino effect. We get through yesterday, put that day in the past, move on, through today, and work through it. Tomorrow what it can bring to us is fresh, and new, and the beginning of the days of possibilities. Always look forward to tomorrow, and what it may bring us as u travel through the peaks and valleys and when you reach that peak hang on, because the view at the top is much brighter.

When sadness knocks at your doors don’t answer it, It will leave, and when happiness knocks answer it, and bring it into your life. Do not be frightened when it leaves when you least expect it, it shall return. The journey continues to walk the road of challenge adversity, and obstacles. Even when the odds are against us we continue to go on with complete effort!
Never stop trying, and we will never feel there is no chance to win!
And if we face the right direction on this road that has been given to us we have to keep going, no matter how difficult this road may be, we may feel despair, loneliness, and be afraid but we will not falter and we may not be there yet but we are much closer as of yesterday and what we get by reaching our destination is not nearly as vital of what we will find, and whom we may become when we do!

Like a Ghost

http://www.bipolar4lifesupport.co

Another sleepless night has come upon me,
which takes me round and round
playing this crazy hide and seek again,
while in the darkness of my home
another lonely spirit wanders by.

She’s dressed in clouds of ethereal smoke,
she gazes timidly my way, as if to ask,
“Are you the remnant of my kind?”
No time to fear nor mourn
the image has eloped.

And while at last I find my rest in bed,
her breathing wakes me up,
as if to say, “Wake-up! let’s play again!”
I distinctly hear her breath,
but there’s no fear in me.
Who knows?
Perhaps, I am the ghost,
who keeps her company.

When Life is done

When Life is Done;

I’d like the memory of me to be a happy one,
I’d like to leave a after glow of smiles when life is done.

I’d like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways.
of happy times, and laughing times, and bright, and sunny days.

I’d like the tears of those who grieve to dry the sun of happy memories
that I leave ….

When life is done.

A shell of myself

http://www.bipolar4lifesupport.co

A shell of myself

I embrace the good
Happiness flows within me,
Pouring out
Ruining me.

I snap.
Others are too much.
From euthanasia to rage,
Then back.

The glee leaks out
Leaving an empty shell.
These are my remains,
Sad and bitter.

Hatred for others
Now turned to me.
Former arrogance is now loathing,
Thanks for Life is now hope for Death.

I screw it up inside.
My body scared with secrets.
I lie there, waiting
And it begins again…
