Comeback Time...

I was reading this article on Whitney Houston this morning in the LA Times and I realized that everyone goes through a tough time in their life. The only difference is that celebrities have to do it with the entire world watching where we do it with just friends and family watching. I absolutely love Whitney Houston and part of me could relate with what she was going through in her marriage. However, when we are in the middle of chaos, we can't see it. And then when we do, we wonder "how did I get here? and how am I going to turn things around?". In a way, we all have "comebacks" in our lives, they're just not as public as the celebrities.

I guess Create your own...Journey is my "comeback". I was knocked around by life for two years when my son was born unexpectedly at 29 weeks and spent the first 6 months of his life in a hospital NICU. Talk about all your hopes & dreams of bringing your newborn baby home and your life being like it is is the magazine just vanishing... day by day... and you start to wonder will your life ever get back to normal??? Actually, you start to wonder what the hell is normal??? because you lose that concept when the doctors tell you that your son may not make it out of surgery that day...

So here I sit today, blessed that my son's alive and my marriage is still in tact after 2 years of chaos. Ready for my comeback...

Reading that article this morning gave me a new way to think about my journey. It's my journey back... my comeback!
Now all I need is a promo video like Whitney :-)
