🎊🎉 They say once you make it to 25, you’re a real one ✌🏾✋🏾 Thank you to everyone that’s making my birthday special and amazing. I absolutely love and appreciate you. There were times I didn’t think I’d make it here but God. The Divine Creator got me here. I don’t know about you, but I’m about to make this a real one. Let’s make this year count baby babyyyyyyy 😛🥰🤩🎈🎉🎊

Living with a chronic illness is a lesson that test one's character, being, confidence, and spirituality just to name a few arenas. Especially an illness that is not visible to the eye, people think I’m just being dramatic.

You can’t feel what I feel.

You can’t sense what I sense.

“Ashleigh you’re always sick.”

I’ve learned that love is complicated and it takes a toll on people who care. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible or that I am incapable or do not deserve love. Love is the very unit that constructs the base of our lives.

I’ve learned that my openness can be an encouragement to others. It’s not fair for me to hold in all that I am when there are other people who can benefit from my struggles and victories in relation to my chronic illness.

I’ve learned that I am not entirely my chronic illness. It does not define me but I define it. I am not solely a sick being who seeks to find a cure, but I am a creative, a person who has the potential for more greatness that she even realizes. The future is female.

I’ve learned that I have what it takes to have control over myself to a certain extent. I know how I need to eat, drink, exercise, mentally take care of myself and all of this. I cannot leave all of my health up to date and other people.

I will not be defined by my illness. I am strong, resilient, powerful, evolutionary, amazing, female.

No matter what your chronic illness is, you are amazing. You are everything you need to be and more. Don’t give up, but keep on fighting. People are rooting for you, I am cheering for you.

You are loved,

Queen 👑

I’m caught between trying to live my life, and trying to run from it.
