Autoimmune Adventures: Life ~ The Jig Saw Puzzle


Life is like a jig saw puzzle. If you focus on just one or two pieces you'll never know what it is you're really looking at. Once you get more and more of the puzzle together you know more and more whats going on. But even once you finish that puzzle, you won't see the beauty of it if you put your nose to it. You have to step back in order to see the whole thing. That applies to all aspects of life; school, work, love, raising a family, overcoming an illness or autoimmune issues, or just having a goal or a hobby, ect.  

Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny." ~ C.S. Lewis

   I love that quote. It helps me deal with any of the little things that come up in life, it reminds me that hardship or trials in our life make us stronger. Things could be hard now, but tomorrow holds untold possibilities.  You just have to stay looking for the bright side of things. Otherwise you fall into a defeatist mentality - which hurts not only you but those around you who love you and want the best for you.
