What I Know Now Because of Fibromyalgia

How much I am loved
It's OK to say no
There is value in looking on listening not always being in the thick of it.
There is pleasure to be has in being quiet not always being the one to entertain.
I enjoy time on my own quiet time.
Life can be good and enjoyable despite illness you can be happy.
It's OK to put yourself first.#If you want or need something you need to ask - people are not mind-readers.
I do more now because of my illness - I don't want to waste the good days.
When you go slower you notice different things to people who are rushing around- litle snails in the road, knots on trees, flowers that are slightly hidden from view- unless you are going slow.
