Ever since I started writing this book, I have kept in mind that this is simply a journal. Yes, I have always loved writing journals but not published it to anyone. Something had to change and up until now, I am keeping track to be more open.
God has been so good in every season of my life. Actually, God himself always walks with us because His promise is to never leave nor forsake us.
You may have read pages of this journal. Each one depicts a reason to wake up. In real life, inspirations don't always come from comfort zones. You have to see dozens of worst scenarios before witnessing a best doubled one. You have to fall a hundred times to be able to rise up, gaze and see what a million stars on the sky mean. In the same way, some have fallen asleep for so long to be able to wake up again.
Every month, there has to be phases where my health stays in an unstable condition. I have a hard time keeping things up with PMS (premenstrual symptoms). It is natural for a woman to experience irritation, mood swings, stress and physical pains before and during their period. The moment I feel myself getting stressed than usual, I don't cherish it. Those who do not understand would keep asking and wondering why things are not the way it normally is. I cannot explain everything when being asked. The first thing I do is to accept the change in my body and emotion, especially on a few days during the menstruation. It is also a season of many learnings and livings as I unplug and recharge in solitude. I am still working on myself to deal with my irritation better or else I'll hurt people and blame PMS alone. Bad health conditions affect us but we are also given the strength to balance and ask for God's healing and intervention.
To beautiful ladies out there who also struggle with the same thing, I'd like to hear from you. To gentle men, I thank you for reading and with this, I hope we are all aware of one another's needs. Perhaps a mutual one is respect.
PMS can change someone for a season and becoming aware of it helps us take the challenge better. It's a cycle but we gotta add meaning to it. A day with PMS does not make someone become less.
