The Good and the Bad

UnknownHouston, TX

The story

In life you have to take the good with the bad. Although my illness is bad I can still find and have good things in my life. On my back you see some feelings I have on a day to day basis. Some good, some bad. The black gown represents the dark feelings. But in the front you see all the good things I still have or can look to for happiness. You can look forward to...the holidays at home with your kids and family...a fishing trip...walking the dog...counting the start...calling your friends or a counsellor...keep your heart open to love...smell the roses. Just live and love life.
