<p>I feel invincible today.  Why? Because I did not let anything faze me.</p>
<p>It feels great to be in charge of my life, my emotions, my reactions, and in general all the other stuff in my life.  That is not to say that everything is perfect now.  I still have unpaid bills, unplanned meals, undone laundry and a messy handbag.  But I can find what I need and I know I can put a plan together to do the undone tasks.</p>
<p>Keeping that chin up ALL of the time is a huge effort in itself.  But it is possible, I have seen it in some of my friends.  Nothing seem to push them down for too long and they ALWAYS pick themselves up and move on.  I am working on it.  I know I can do it.  Especially today.</p>
<p>I pledge to deal with bad emotions and vibes positively.<br />
I pledge to be calm and collected in the face of emergencies of any kind.<br />
I pledge to define myself with God and the people who geniuely love me for who I am.<br />
I pledge to keep positive people around me.<br />
I pledge to be a good Christian, wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, colleague, coach &#8211; roughly in that order.</p>
<p>I am letting this invincible feelings wash over the whole of me.  I know I won&#8217;t be able to hold on to it forever &#8211; afterall, life goes up and down.  But for now, I am enjoying it.</p>
