Why Do I Feel This Way? Unmotivated, Irritable and Not Like Myself

It was just one of those days. The rain was coming down steadily. The clouds made the house darker than normal and I could feel the stagnant air floating in the space around me. If I could cut through the air and open up a bubble of fresh air, maybe I could find relief. I take a deep breath in and exhale heavily. Maybe a few deep breathing exericises will get the happy cells in my brain to wake up. In a few short hours the day will be past and maybe tomorrow will be brighter. Do you ever have

Trust God or Take Life Into My Own Hands: Abortion, Down Syndrome and the Issues of Life

Mother of the Year or Monster of the Year? Let Your Family Decide
