There is a season ....

Hello,
Happy Palm Sunday to those who celebrate the faith.

It is, as written, a season of rebirth .... Spring brings new growth, a new outlook.
The dead, die off, the shedding of skin, the leaving of the nest, etc ... all sorts of metaphoric type statements. You get the idea.

I'm sorry I haven't made many "personal" posts in the past months ... not even sure how many it's been.
Here ... is just a tidbit of what my life consists of these days:

Vision therapy
Cognitive therapy
Psychotherapy - to learn and cope with all the life-changing things that occurred in this accident.
Not to mention - I must remain as compliant as possible with doctors I saw all along, my endocrine, my neurologist, my "lady" doc, and an occasional PCP visit. Oh wait, let's add on the loss of my job, my health insurance, my home, my income as of 2 weeks ago, and my baby girl moving away. This happening sent a couple of my providers into a major tizzy.  Oh NO ... she is all alone with only the supervision of her dog!!!!  The "SYSTEM" in which we are too reside ... sucks!!! From the top down. I have, in a nutshell, become a statistic .... people are being expected to do things, big things, everyday committments, with NOTHING, and it isn't a place I plan to hold for much longer.  I am at a point in my life, like the season, in which I must let go of all the things I have NO control over ... and start anew.  I must let go of those who hinder my recovery, hold on to bad vibes in those I have, again, no control over, and most, is of no fault of my own. 

 I am SO completely and totally blessed with the souls that inhibit my life .... and the memories of those who had, but now are only memories, guiding me in a sense, from the other side. It is a place in which I am not afraid to venture, I am not ready yet, but for which I have already been there and back ... it is clear, that my presence on this plane is not complete. I must find my direction, and I am SO very grateful to the people who love me, care about me,  and the therapists who have placed in my path to help me learn a new way to get by.  Maybe not the way I hoped of a year or so ago .... but .... have I ever really had a plan???? Not really. In hindsight ... been winging it my entire life. Maybe now, I will have a goal, a place in which I hope to land, and reap a quiet, inner reward of peace and contentment.

and .... there goes the illustrious new "brain fart" (a daily irritating occurrence)... the thoughts are gone. So with that, I wish peace, love, contentment, light and a positive outlook. Miracles can and do happen .... we must believe and use the knowledge, compassion, love and light to move forward to better and more beautiful things this spring season. 

Have a peaceful day!!!!
Be good to you, be good to each other.
With love and light

Absolutely NO direction

Hi Everyone,

Well ... I really do wish I could write more :(
I have no real direction ... concept of time, most times, down right lost, empty.
So ... I don't know how I am doing it, as I am beyond exhausted ... I'm not sure I have ever felt as I do in recent months. At least, when I had a "terrible life experience" ... ( this sort of comment makes me laugh, thinking only I knew what went on behind closed doors ), I had my brain to help guide my heart. My brain, doesn't play well without some serious direction ... really....?? This is what I ask myeslf as well. 

Anyway ... today, I am blank ... my head is full ... as in congested, and I can't afford, on any level to get sick where I would have to seek the ER .... not on my agenda!!!!!!! It's not written in my planner .... no where .... if it ain't there ... it ain't happenin' .... I have a hard time even LOL these days.  I have to do some packing ... today is auction day :/ .... not sure what tomorrow holds ... but then, I just want to get through today ... rest, fluids, and a couple (hopefully) of needed to do tasks here in the house.

Thanks to all who continue to follow me, my antics, the research which is making great progress in coming to the forefront of the science/medical brain children. I am grateful to these souls, world-wide for their efforts and passions of finding cures ... not just Band-Aids, i.e., pill pushers .... at exuberant costs to us poor, hard-working stiffs.  We really should look hard at socialized medicine ... an honest pro-con approach. Then sum it up .... wonder if I will live long enough to see something positive come from this great nation.

Have a wonderful day!!
Peace and Light

Just Because ....

I am drained
mentally, physically, and emotionally .... it is dark.

Yet, I remain hopeful .... for my future, my friends and loved ones,
Prayers for those who hold out hope ... that the world will change.
... for the better.


Peace, Light and Love
