I've been getting them since I was a little girl. My first grade picture proudly sports a nice big crusty cold sore. It is part of the herpes virus & will never go away. As I got older I made the connection that I got cold sores when I was emotionally stressed out. The normal stress isn't a big deal but its the emotional stress that always seems to get me.
I can always feel the moment they pop out & then watch in dread as it continues to blister & feaster & grow. I was sitting in church yesterday & felt the pop.
It's true there's a lot going on right now. But I'm also blessed with a sense of peace & that helps me to be calm. Faith in a higher being is essential. And my Austin has been praying for me freverently. If the unwavering faith of my five year old doesn't bring peace, happiness & hope then I'm a lost cause.
It's gonna be a good week in spite of that crusty cold sore.
