I wonder if this is how she felt…

Everyday is a constant struggle just to stay alive, nothing makes your happy, tired of trying to be happy, can’t imagine this dull pain inside your heart forever…with the hopelessness.

The feeling that you are all alone even though you know you have people who dearly love you.

There is help and you are not alone

Teen Depression Websiteoctober-2016-169

I’ve never suffered from depression, but I wonder if this is how she felt:

Everyday is a constant struggle just to stay alive, nothing makes your happy, tired of trying to be happy, can’t imagine this dull pain inside your heart forever…with the hopelessness.

The feeling that you are all alone even though you know you have people who dearly love you.

If this is what depression is…I can’t even image living like this everyday…

Early Detection is Important…

Ms Mandi Photo 1

I have several friends recently, who have been diagnosed with some form of cancer. Sadly to say, one of them only recently died this Friday. She opted out to have chemotherapy and radiation, since her cancer had spread from her lungs, intertwining around her spine. The doctors gave her six months to live…after diagnosed. I think she made it to five months.

Cancer is a monster that overtakes your body and consumes your soul.
Early awareness and early detection is so important. Trust your body to tell you when something is wrong. Research your symptoms. Reach out to others for insight. Don’t always trust what your doctors tell you…dismissing it as nothing. Find out the facts and get a second opinion…or a third.

Knowledge is power! Let’s put a stop to this monster once and for all, before it continues to take more lives.

Excerpt from Julian’s Voice:

Ms Mandi Photo 1

Traveling from the small island of Kauai, Hawaii and back to Southern California, Kate’s life is abundant with one of the happiest days of her life; the day Julian is born, July 2002.

It’s a day filled with bittersweet moments and lessons that quickly turn to devastation, as she soon discovers the reminiscence of her baby’s birth. Kate feels betrayed by her doctor, by society, and by God.

Why are you thankful?

Ms Mandi Photo 1

Being thankful has many different meanings for different people. I am thankful for so many reasons this year. I am thankful for getting our house back from the bank. I am thankful for having a great job. I am thankful for my family. I am thankful for my health.

My gratitude for this year has grown tremendously. This has been a year of growth and learning to not take for granted those wonderful people and things I have been blessed with in life.

Every day is a gift. Love is a gift. Hold on to what you have and don’t let go. You may think that others have more than you, but once you lose what you had, you will realize how much you really did appreciate it.

Happy Thanksgiving…Ask Ms Mandi

Forty…

Ms Mandi Photo 1

Forty is a time to grow.  This is a crucial age.  This is a time for women to make changes.  These changes may be related to relationships, career, inspirational, or soul-searching.  The decade when woman are forty, she must make some serious decisions.  When she was younger, time wasn’t against her.  Now that she is getting older, time is more of a factor. 

During a women’s forties, she needs to make some life-long decisions.  Don’t stay in an unhealthy relationship.  Find true love.  Don’t stay in a career that bores you.  Find out what is exciting and go after that job prospect.  This is the time to travel and meet new people and experience new places.  Your children are probably old enough to take care of themselves, so this is the time to re-connect with yourself or to find your self again.

Enjoy being forty.  You are still young and beautiful.  This is the time to shine, so shine.
