Pain can be a barrier to enjoying your life: It's been a long time since I have blogged here. It's not that I didn't want to but I just couldn't seem to make the time for it. For the past couple years and a half, I have been dealing with my health worsening from one issue to the next. As time went on, I had to deal with constant pains and going to the doctor more regularly. Now, I am taking different medications and it seems that I have been getting more added to the list. I have to take medications every day and some of the meds I would have to take for the rest of my life.

It is wonderful to read some of the answers to the question in the giveaway: Who is the one person who can make you smile even on a bad day? Many had similar answers: kids, hubby, grandbabies, friends, moms, pets. Some even said it was hard to pick one. That's great too, isn't it? I too would say hubby, kids, mom and my friend, Sheena. She lives far away, but when we are on the phone, we can talk a long time. She always seem to understand me and no matter what mood I may be i n, we always share lots of laughter- genuine ones.  A couple people put Jesus as their answers. I definitely agree with that because I firmly believe that no matter may happen, He's the One who gives me the inner strength to keep on going. On a lighter note, no matter what answer you put, I am happy that there is someone who can make you put a smile on your face. Keep smiling. Keep shining and when obstacles come your way, use them as stepping stone. God bless!
