I have not left the country,
I have not been kidnapped and forced to cook for the mob
I have not had my computer stolen or my fingers bound in duct tape.
I am still here living my life with abundance.
Of course, when a life is well lived there are those times when transitions are experienced and I have had one of those months. Some sad, some joyful.
I have gained a new doctor.
I have lost my pain from fibromyalgia with a new medication.
I have gained a new Yoga class.
I have lost some inches.
I have gained a new work project.
I have lost some blog time.
I have gained new sleep meditations for my ipod.
I have lost the need to count sheep.
I have gained a new appreciation for a woman of faith, loved by so many.
I have lost a 44 year old cousin's spouse through sudden and unexpected death.
I have gained insight into the process of dying.
I have lost an uncle to cancer.
I have gained a career minded daughter moving back home for a while.
I have lost 2 of my precious tax deductions to adulthood.
Yes, in the ups and downs of life I am still here....expecting abundant joy every day and
finding it!!!
Cheers!!!

Hello sweet friend...I was thinking of you today. What an amazing time you have had recently, highs and lows, and you never fail to amaze me with your insight. You have taught me so much about looking beyond what is put in front of me.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to hear that you are not working fingers to the bone for the mob...I hear the benfits aren't that great!!
Welcome back....it has only been 17 long days but who is counting!!!
ReplyDeleteWith all your ups and downs I am pleased to read you are "expecting abundant joy every day and finding it".
You are the epitome of when one leads an abundant life they find a way of coping with the lows and rejoicing the highs and everything in between.
I thought Liz summed it up well...."You have taught me so much about looking beyond what is put in front of me".

ReplyDeleteWelcome back. I too have been a wayward blogger, but life is good and I am glad that your life has been abundant. I am terribly sorry for your losses however. I hope these people lived a full life to give you pleasant memories of them.
