Discovery

Does life ever turn out the way we expected? I doubt it. A smooth ride would only serve to make us dull and unsympathetic beings.

I didn’t know that I had the ability to crawl out of darkness until I did. When illness knocked me off my feet, I had the reassurance of knowing I’d defeated worse.

The future is unknown, and I trust that I am equipped to handle whatever comes my way.

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.

  6. Well said, VJ, hoping your health quickly improves. I have been blessed with good health except for a couple prescriptions. My depression has steadily improved since my wifeā€™s death last year. Writing is my main medicine. Thank God, because I canā€™t imagine the aloneness without it. Cheers!

    1. Thanks Gary. I live with chronic illness, so no reprieve, but writing sure helps. Seems at one stage of life or another, we’re always finding ourselves. Sorry for your loss.

      1. Iā€™m so sorry VJ. My late wife suffered from chronic pain for as long as I knew her, almost fifty years. I miss her badly every day. The temperature of the grief has lessened. But there are bad days. Anyway, I pray you find better day ahead. All the best, Gary.
