Hello Lovely Ladies..
Whatever menopausal stage you're in, what/who MOTIVATES you to get up and start your day? Is it an uplifting song, a prayer, a scripture, a kind word from a family member, a hug from your significant other, meditating, exercising, etc.. Tell me your thoughts. Thanks!

Honestly, sometimes I just lie there in the early dark hours in a miserable, self-pitying state until I really have no choice but to get up and deal with everyday life -- mostly childcare related. But it's my kids who keep me going. So I'll say my prayers and encourage myself in the Lord, and then get on with it. Keeping distracted with kid stuff or work helps, though in truth sometimes the physical discomforts can feel quite overwhelming! I try to reach a level of acceptance, because the more I rail against it, the worst it all feels. I remind myself that this too shall pass -- after all, everything is temporary -- and we're here for so brief a time, so I try not to waste the day I've been given. Hang in there, and feel free to write me any time you need a shoulder X
