Church

Went to church!

I did alright with all the standing.

Did not walk down the center aisle--entered and left from the side with the Chalicist.

Did not have a Bible-based sermon, instead shared five secrets God has given to me in the last 3 weeks.

>Listen to your body. Your mind may tell you you can do something--but listen to your body instead and do what it tells you.

>Pray for patience. It's what we need to get where we need to be--patience, patience, patience....

>Take one day at a time. Don't try to jump ahead. Tomorrow will come after today. Let it be that way.

>Stay in the moment. Take what each moment gives you. Don't think about 'before' or 'after. Let the moment be where you dwell.

>Be profoundly thankful for those who have cared for you: surgeons, doctors, nurses, aides--especially aides for their willingness to do what needs to be done. And, of course, those who wish you well and your family that nurses you back to health.

I'm tired, but fulfilled....
