A big step into the world of Gina, Don’t go through life FINE.

  I’m sure some of you are wondering what had happened to me.  Well I did too.  This fun loving, social, outgoing person most of you know, kind of took a detour.  Over the last few months I learned that I am really good at hiding what is going on inside, but I finally had to face reality and take off the smiling mask and talk to someone.  I learned why you go to a therapist and how they can help.  I learned that depression is not just something that you can HANDLE. I learned that saying everything is FINE, or I am FINE, or I DON’T CARE alot, is not okay.  FINE is now a four letter word.  You should never just be FINE, you should be good, or great and yes there are times where you are going to a bad day but when those happen say today sucked, but do not go through life FINE.  I learned that you can go through all kinds of chemical imbalances, especially with other things happening in your life like menopause and empty nest syndrome and not even know  it until your husband (God love him) and your friends tell you “you’re not yourself” and you need to do something.  So I did.  I took a few weeks and made some baby steps, started some medication, therapy and took a much needed vacation.   I feel better but understand that it is something that takes time and with these baby steps I am beginning another new journey into Gina. 
I am continuing to grow my travel business, as most of you know I am busy arranging a group cruise for next year (hope you will join me). I am continuing to work full time, (got to pay the bills), but I am taking time for Gina.  I understand now that becoming overwhelmed with life’s struggles is not a weakness, and actually being able to admit that you need to lean on those closest to you is a sign of strength. 
So as Easter approaches and we celebrate new life with Jesus, take a minute and celebrate your own life.  Look at the beauty around you even in the midst of everyday chaos and ugliness and you will find a sense of peace.  Step back breath and say life is good, look in the mirror and smile.  I want to thank all of you for your support and love and I hope you all have a blessed Easter and I hope each and every one of you are having GREAT day. 
Please remember to share this and comment, I would love to know your thoughts.
