It's been a little over three years since I've been dx. I've seen alot of changes in my life since then. But one thing I firmly believe is that I have MS for a reason....whether to teach me something or help me teach others something. A little of both, I believe.
I choose to consider MS a different direction in my life. Something I had not banked on or considered but it's my reality now. I love a challenge and I try to find new and innovative ways to do things that I previously enjoyed but find it hard to do now. And if I help one person who is having a rough time of it.....whether they have MS or not......then to me it's all been worth it.
Some days I curse it, others I find reasons to be thankful for it. But what it all comes down to is that this is me. Take it or leave it.

That is basically what I get from "MS is just a fact of my life". I have it and I will deal with it. Unfortunately it isn't as easy to deal with as my gray hair...Clairol but thats just the facts.
