To celebrate the 3rd Anniversary of FibroHaven, this little blog that has somehow reached and touched thousands, I want to share with you a creed that describes what I am feeling these days and how I aspire to live – and perfectly reflects my love and hope for each of you who make FibroHaven what it is.
The Optimists Creed
Promise Yourself
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words but great deeds.
To live in faith that the whole world is on your side so long as you are true to the best that is in you.

I am constantly growing, learning, and working towards a better me. FibroHaven is a reflection of that, and I want to personally thank each and every one of you who has taken the time to read a post, leave a comment, send me a message, and interact with each other. It is a reflection of your own desires to grow, learn, and work towards a better YOU.
So today I am celebrating YOU, because you are FibroHaven! Thank you for making this community what it is. May we continue to see the sunny side of everything, expect only the best, and live in faith that the world is on our side.
Much Love & Many Blessings,

Congratulation for aniversary…
Happy 3rd Anniversary! It is so good to hear the upbeat message. This is the only way we can be our best, by being positive and happy.
For whatever reasons, drug abuse or substance abuse is not uncommon today among adults. Children are just emulating what they have learnt from the adults. Adolescence is an age or rather state of mind when one becomes vulnerable and sensitive to different situations. As a responsible parent, you must be aware of you’re children’s whereabouts. The only way you can find fun and enjoyment in life is not through drugs or alcohol and you should make your kids understand that.
You are not a kid anymore. You have started making your own decisions, taking responsibilities, choosing between right and wrong. You are smart enough to understand what is good and bad for you. Alcohol and drugs does nothing for you. No, it is not the way to have fun in life. Popping a few sleeping pills just because your friend does is not a smart move. These substances have additive chemicals which does the magic. Your parent would not suspend you of doing drugs ever; you are smarter than them to hide the stuff away that no one can ever guess.
