Hey Taste Testes, it has been quit awhile since I was able to do a blog post and I apologize but family and personal health comes first. In this time I have actually learned a lot about myself. While I names this blog The Mixing Pot with the thoughts of my blended family in mind I have come to realize that the Mixing Pot metaphor goes so much deeper for me. I am actually a Mixing Pot. Some of my many ingredients inside of this spicy gumbo like mixture called Rachel M. are my titles of a mother, a bonus mom, a girlfriend and an ex wife. Those are just some of the obvious ones people often miss that I am a friend, a sister, but more importantly I am a person, I am a depression and anxiety fighter. While some may wonder why I chose to include this, others may be able to identify with it. I felt that I had to include it because it is a part of me that I had to acknowledge in order to try to cope with it. embrace all of my ingredients for they are what make me, ME! So even though this blog entry is short it carries a powerful message. Even though we may not understand why certain things are apart of us embrace yourself as a whole and live by the serenity prayer!
TTYL XOXOX Rachel M.
