If I've learned anything at all since I've gotten older, it's that you shouldn't stand idle for too long, or life just might pass you by. Usually this happens without receiving any kind of notice or warning on the subject also. You wake up one day, look in the mirror, and you don't recognize the person eyeballing you back. The questions begin rolling around in your head as this person continues to stare a hole through you...What happened to my hair?...How come I haven't done many of the things I planned to do years ago?...Is that a skin tag on my neck?...Where are the people I was certain would remain constant in my daily living?...What...gray hair in my brow?...Where did my son's childhood go?( he's approaching 18 )
There are many reasons why your life might take unexpected twists and turns; some you can manuever and change. Some you can't...as it is when suffering with an auto immune syndrome, like Fibromyalgia.
I think the uncertainity of the days ahead are the most frustrating to me. I want to work in my garden. I want to craft. I want to travel. Such simple things to most, but extremely difficult for me due to fatigue, pain and soreness. My plan is to keep on keeping on and allow God to help me lighten the load.
Til next time, blessings!
