Today is a new day.

Today is a new day. The first day of a new month. The first day of a new start.

Every day is a new day. Every day is a gift. Especially when you have diabetes.

My birthday is next week. I will be celebrating another year of being alive. Another year of living. Another year of living with diabetes.

 

It’s never easy. It’s never fun. Most of this year I spent wanting to give up. Wanting to give in. Wanting to let go.

 

I won’t do it anymore.

I can’t do it anymore.

I am the only one in control of my life. This is me. This is me saying:

 

I can do this.

No one else can, but I can.
