What is Complacency?
Complacency is a mind virus meant to rob you of ambition and drop you in wet cement; meant to leave you shriveled, tired, and feeble; a drop of dust in the sea of woe is me and lazy nihilism.
It wants you to sit back while someone else lives the dreams you dreamt.
Gets the job you always wanted.
Buys the house you always drove by daydreaming about.
Complacency wants to give you the excuse that al things, this included, are okay.
Excuses are merely nails used to build a house of failure
It gets hard. When it feels like you're constantly weighed down; when that thief of joy pops up without warning. The civil war going on inside your own body is something nobody should have to deal with.
You've been knocked down... but will you be beaten?
Despite what they all say... someone is going to save you. It's you.
Benlysta. Remind yourself who you are.

Who Are You?
It's easy to know who you are when everything is going your way; when the sunshine hits just right... when the birds are chirping.
But what about when it's cloudy? When it gets tough, and that point that you thought would be the end just keeps on expanding?
It is in these moments that we figure out who we are.
Like a fresh sheet of paper- we are born to be written on. And when you first put ink to paper, you wanted to be a fireman. an astronaut... a veterinarian... hell, even the President. You had a unique understanding that the world was your's... that you could do anything.
But no one tells you how hard it will be to get there. Yes, you can do anything. But you must be willing.
Willing to look at that mountain and understand that, no matter what it takes, the view from the top is worth it. It has to be.
Your kids...your partner...your parents... you. Are worth it.
Benlysta will help you climb the mountain that is Lupus. But you need to take the first step.

You're Still Breathing
If you're still breathing, it doesn't have to be this way.
Don't boil the ocean. Rome wasn't built in a day, but someone had to lay the first brick.
Lupus took a lot from you.
Our actions may be impeded, but no one can impede our intentions or our dispositions. The mind adapts and coverts to it's own purposes the obstacle to our acting. The impediment to action advances action.
What stands in the way, becomes the way.
Lupus stands in your way only if you let it. Demand more from life. Hold it accountable. Squeeze it for all it's worth.
But that only works if you do.
You're still breathing. That means you got some fight left in you.
You've been knocked down... but will you be beaten?
Benlysta is in your corner. You just need to show up to the ring.
