Meaningful..... What that means to the individual will give various responses. Different life but life just the same. My momma told me just today that adversaries make us stronger.
Some days I don't want to be strong I just want to enjoy life pain free. For most of us here, until the cure it might never happen.
So we, I find meaning by being the best me I can be. May sound cliché, but I have learned to love myself in a better way. I don't, well try not to push myself....which led to not letting peoples walk over me. My opinion does matter. And I continue to help others as best as I can.
I count my blessings and continue to show gratitude for them.
On those days I just can't take it any more....friends here and posts, have encouraged me to hang in there.
Yes, I believe we do live a meaningful life despite our pain. Keep up the fight.
