I’ve been having a pity-party of sorts lately. Between the never-ending health issues, doctors’ appointments, hospital tests, bloodwork, etc., it takes a toll on your state of mind. Positive as I try to be, sometimes it gets the better of us when we’re not looking.

All that changed today when I received an email from National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Apparently, I am now a member of the “2008 Gold Soles Club”. If you were a first-time “walker” in the MS Walk 2008, and raised more than $500.00, you are officially a member. I was absolutely thrilled and honored. My outlook changed completely from being bummed out to being very happy.

I realized at that moment I had been a part of something good, done something for a good cause, and hopefully contributed to help find a cure - soon - for MS. And now I was being acknowledged for it. What could be better than that? Anything that had been bothering me seemed petty now. What was I thinking?
