Healing Thoughts
By Laura Wild
If you are feeling lost and alone, you have come to the right place.
Everyone can use some encouragement each day.
Along my Lyme journey I have learned some very important things.
You are "experiencing" Lyme/co-infections, they are NOT YOU. They are something you are going through. Don't let illness define YOU.
It is up to you how you choose to REACT to your reality. It is easy to become full of fear, and become depressed. Keep your spirit strong and you can get through this.
The best things in life are not things.
You must climb your mountain, no matter how big or small it is.
Never give up when you still have something to give.
Things turn out best for people who make the best of the way things turn out.
Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all. -Dale Carnegie
WildCondor's Favorite Warrior Motto
The fight of my life...the fight of your life! Anytime you face your own mortality, you're life will never be the same. You will go through all the different emotions, anger, fear, sadness, depression, and finally, you learn to laugh! It is the way you choose to deal with the situation that will shape your future. You can choose to accept things as they are, and believe that "this is as good as it's gonna get", OR you can get yourself up off your "unlucky" butt and fight like hell. Lyme disease, and any life-altering chronic disability changes your life in many ways. The challenge lies not only in your body fighting off this illness, but in your attitude. You have to fight! You don't have a choice! You only get one life, and regardless of what obstacles you are faced with, you have to find a way to overcome them, no matter how huge they are. Here are some simple quotations that have helped me keep my attitude and spirit focused on determination and positive thinking. I hope that you will find them refreshing and peaceful regardless of if you are sick or not. Remember, giving up is not an option.

"The Strongest of Stones"
The most beautiful of stones have been tossed by the wind, washed by the waves,
and polished to brilliance by life's strongest storms.

Warrior of the Dark Night
by Laura Wild
Feel the truth within the mystery
uncertain purpose
warm thoughts fill the shadows
obstacles disappear shrinking on the horizon of new-found hope
with strength and courage I shall walk
I will not give up, I cannot give up
stars show me the path to hope for a new day
I seek higher purpose and long to share
I fight onward, bittersweet rewards
seek solace in simplicity
each day of my life
warrior in spirit
salvation of inner peace
I will endure
Life is still beautiful
Hiding in silence within
Warrior of the dark night travels on

My favorite saying is this "we must embrace pain, and burn it as fuel on our journey."
