Who knew .. . After surviving my accident last year I was still limping pretty badly in February though full of light and hope for this year.
6 months later I am not limping anymore! Unless It's cold and humid out and my arthritis acts up. My hope and light has traveled through year!
I have traveled a lot this year taking any opportunity to that I can.
I saw Lake Tahoe in June and got snowed on at the beach while reading wrapped in a blanket. I have been back to my Xanadu many times this year. I even went there this month! That was a magical experience and so much fun!
Recovery has been long and hard, but the Injuries that hurt the most and are the hardest to get over are the internal scars. The Memories of torture, the memory loss and speech issues. It's even more difficult when those around you do not understand that you are struggling. It can be mentally and emotionally draining when those around you are not sympathetic and dismiss your struggle.
It has been a journey of many layers. Finding a balance in life, realizing my new limitations and also new strengths. Finding the forgiveness I needed to forgive myself for the incident even happening, Finding the strength to let go of negative people around me and develop loving supportive relationships with those who are kind and understanding. It really makes you look back and see the importance of being in a positive environment where one can grow and feel safe.
I feel blessed this year. I feel like a phoenix rising from the fire only to become brighter and more powerful and new!
I have found my rainbow and sunshine and everyday I think of that love and thank the creator for not taking me home last year.
As well everyday I can kiss my son and hold him close reminds me how rich and wonderful life is.
