Women suffer in silence everyday. Mental illness is something a person suffers with and sometimes their loved ones and friends do not know it.

You feel helpless and hopeless and you get tired of hurting. You get tired of waking up and feeling like you are living in a nightmare.

You are NOT alone! This is something that everyone goes through at some point in their journey of life. These thoughts start in your mind.

If we can keep our mind focused on God, we will not have time to worry about other things, especially if they are out of our control.

You have to fight those thoughts everyday. Every second.

But trust me, you can do it! With the Word of God!

Being 33 with no kids is not what I wanted in my life. Being over 30 with no kids in this society is not as uncommon as you think. People automatically assume that something is wrong with a woman with no children. In reality, there is nothing wrong, it is not her time…yet. Only God knows the plans He has for their lives.

Don’t forget about these women who suffer in silence.  They may have been through something traumatic like a miscarriage or had to make a decision to have an abortion. Whether it was their personal request to not have kids or it was a situation where the baby was lost, she is still a woman. And not having kids doesn’t make her any less of a woman.

Remember, you don’t have to know their story to show empathy. Please be kind to the women in your lives. You never know what is behind that brave face.

Thank you to the women that stand by other women during difficult times.
