My "Theme"

March 28, 2013 by Emilee Evans

No, I’m not actually talking about my blog theme, which is still in the works by the way. I’m not sure I’m “feeling” the current one. Anyway, what I mean by theme is my personal theme. I know many people start the year with their “theme,” and I’ve never done this, but a quarter into this year I realized I do have a theme, and I’m now setting a goal to share a little something about my theme each week (or even more often)! So what is this theme? Perspective. I’ve realized that a lot of hard situations, bad days or even small moments, or even not so bad days or moments are greatly impacted by perspective. I’ve not only come to realize this, but my theme for the rest of this year is to acknowledge my perspective and change it when necessary. As I mentioned, I want to share these moments with you!
I’m sure many of us, especially parents, realize the impact of perspective – our perspectives as well as the perspectives of those around us! We can all impact each other for the better or for the worse. This is why I’m focusing on changing my perspective for the better, and I pray it makes an impact on those around me – starting with my family! Parenting special needs children can be tough. Having a spouse with medical issues can be tough. Having your own medical issues can be tough. But there are many blessings as well that can’t be ignored. Although I’ve always been able to “find the silver lining,” I do think my perspective has often been for the worse, and I’ve been working on that lately! My personal posts have been scarce lately, I know. We’re battling a cold right now (all but our oldest who has an immune system of steel), and I fell behind on other commitments for my blog. I started to feel really stressed out. Instead, though, I chose to accept it for what it is – extra cuddle time with the kids and naps for me! I’m also coming off a medication right now that can have major side effects, so I needed to slow down a little bit! Sure, I don’t want to get backed up on commitments, but I don’t want it to cause me that much stress either! Colds are a part of life – particularly when you have the type of crazy weather like it has been here in Central Texas. It feels like summer one day and not quite even like Spring the next! Everybody around here is feeling the effects of this weather!
So, for the rest of the year I’m going to share a variety of topics and about different perspectives. I do hope to share even more personal posts regularly, but the fact that I haven’t been actually means I’ve been getting some sleep at night! I often blog when I can’t sleep! So hopefully getting off this medication will leave a positive impact on the energy drain I feel during the day and get me back to a normal wake and sleep pattern!

    I look forward to reading more about your ‘theme’ I have to say I’d never thought about having a theme before. x
