Life’s struggles are without a doubt challenging, and when we are in the midst of experiencing hardships we often feel life isn’t work the headache and heartache. Naturally we are inclined to focus only on the negative of what is happening in that moment, to the point that our struggles consume us or even become us, which is when the guilt, depression, sadness, bitterness, anger, frustration, hatred and all other negative emotions take control. But one struggle in life doesn’t define your life. One mistake doesn’t make your entire life a mistake. We are the sum of all of our parts, and our life’s is the same way. If you look back you will see the many times you’ve overcome struggles in your life and how you’re at a better place or how you’re a better person because of it. Don’t let today’s struggles rob you of the happiness that an entire day can bring you. Choose daily to push through the struggles and find the joy around you because the struggles today are not your life’s final destination but rather just a pitstop along the journey. 🙏#aspiretoinspire #inspiration #motivation #dailybread #message #pma #walkinfaith #faithandfamily #mjsolofamensgrooming #mjsolofa #groomingfortheheartandsoul #happinessisachoice #godisgood #countyourblessings #bethankful #wordoftheday #quoteoftheday #dailyquote #instagood #alohaspirit #aloha #spreadlove #letgoandletgod #blessed #manoffaith #faith #inspire #believe”

This quote, by the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, is one of our favourites. Marcus Aurelius was a keen student of the school of Stoicism which teaches us that destructive emotions like fear, anger, worry etc arise from our own errors in judgement, such as placing expectations on others, which we can never control. We have found the basic principles of Stoicism very helpful in learning to cope with the daily tests thrown up from living with IBD, and you may too. For a ‘quick start’ introduction try Seneca’s ‘Letters From A Stoic’ #dailyquote #ibd #strength #invisibleillness #ostomy #crohns #colitis #crohnsfighter #crohnsgirl #ileostomy #ostomy
