| The spiritual experiences I've had over the last few years have a large impact on how I see each day. This last month I sunbathed on the beach. I streached and ran, collected shells and beach glass. I even recorded the waves rolling in for my daughter. I look forward to seeing her soon. Letting her go like this and for so long has taught me to love each moment more. She really is a sweetheart. I finally got a job to make extra money while I'm here. So all that hard work really did pay off. The way I've changed inside is indescribable but I've gained a patience that just wasn't possible 3 or 4 years ago. Of course the way I listen has changed dramatically. But I have a long way to go for talking honestly with people in delicate situations, letting go of pride and praying,thanking more regularly. Thats why they call it progress. You know how that goes. But I really enjoy the journey I'm on now. In those days I thought of life as a burden, a curse of somekind. Now I think of things as gifts. (I was told that) And you can see it stuck. But it's true even these latest stumbling blocks. What would I do without them? |
