A simple message for those with diabetes

I had an amazing conversation with a friend this morning. We were talking about all sorts of things, but most were centered on growth. We always have room in our lives for learning, growing, and getting better.

But we tend to get in our own way.

This made me think of managing a disease like diabetes. There are always ways we can do more or do better, but sometimes we get in our own way. We might refuse to try something new or make a different choice. We might use excuses. We might even think we don’t have what it takes. Worse yet, we might think we aren’t worthy, or that we don’t deserve to be healthy, happy, or successful.

Well, I’m here to remind all of us that we are worthy. We do have what it takes, and we are enough. Let’s get out of our way and get on with living the best possible life before us.
