Fight Like a Girl

Hold your head high.....

"You just stand and be strong, 
and then fight like a girl. 
Oh with style and grace, 
Kick a-- and take names. " 

These are words from a newer country song by Bombshell called Fight Like a Girl. This song has been resonating all around me the last few weeks. I am not one that usually is superstitious or whatever too much but I am a strong believer in God putting things in your life for a reason. Everyone has so much going on these days and as you get older you realize all the battles and struggles people go through in life. The last year or so has been quite a roller coaster. So many things going on with or around me -- friends needing crazy surgeries, grandparents aging and you feeling helpless, the economy, my cousin's son who went through a traumatic brain injury and surgery at a few days old, my headaches (grand scheme not too bad). It is a lot to get a girl a little weighed down. Believe me I am totally aware of how crazy life has been for people and all the situations we find ourselves in. My job daily gives me a dose of how great my life is either things with patients or co-workers. So I feel blessed to have gotten where I am and to have good health (relatively speaking - haha). 

Throughout the last two years I have really changed quite a bit. I would say living on my own, dating, and simply growing up has taught me a lot about myself.  I have become independent but know my own strengths/weaknesses. Lately not sure if this one is good or not but quite out-spoken. I have been really trying to figure out where my life is headed and am I where I need to be right now....no particular part of my life just in general. There is so much out there to do and be done. I keep thinking that there is more out there for me to do before God sends me "that person" -- all totally based on God not sending him yet and wondering what I need to be doing so He will send him on. (Sorry a little humor was needed!!!)  So here I find myself in this "twilight" stage between the after school/college/career starting and family life/settling down. So I am doing what this song says....standing and strong - and yes thinking about kicking some butt and taking names;)
