8 months ago is when my spirit said get the F*ck up and don’t let ANYTHING be an excuse as to why you are not the best version of yourself.
A year and some change ago I had what felt like a stroke and the doctors said it was due to exhaustion. I couldn’t speak full sentences, I would think something but when I would try to speak it would come out like emotional jibberish. It was scary. Imagine how that felt for someone who loves to communicate to not be able to express himself, it sucked. I couldn’t control my emotions, there were times I’d just cry for no reason, I was a raw nerve, sensitive to everything.
Many days I lay there, starring at the ceiling saying “God if you ever let me get back to normal I swear I will never take my health for granted again”. I told God that I would always remember lying in that bed feeling helpless, like “damn am I about to die?” And those memories alone are enough to never allow myself slip back into an unhealthy space.
It’s in those time you find out who you really are, not who you’re pretending to be, not who you allow people to think you are, naaa when it’s you vs yourself and only GOD can hear the conversations…You can’t hide or deny your truth at that point so you ask Are you a quitter or a fighter?
All that being said I KNOW EXACTLY WHO THE F*CK I AM lol and it’s to my core who I’ve always been and always will be. A fighter, a dreamer, a believer in God, a lover, a warrior in Gods army, strong, full of faith and optimism… saying all this to I hope this inspires anyone who needs it to get out of a dark place. You can do it. I love you. Jon *Yon* 💪🏽
