I have a very close person in my life who is recovering from a fairly serious surgery.
This woman is amazing in her daily outlook on life. She wakes up in the morning, with a big smile on her face and her attitude emanates pure joy. (I actually told her that she might need to tone this down, for grinchly people like myself in the morning, how selfish is that)
She is happy to be alive and healing, and she is ready to make a difference. She prefers not to take any pain killers for what is obviously a very painful situation.
She tries to stretch her time as far as it will go, always staying alert and willing to think about creative ventures and positive ideas for the future.
She talks constantly about how she can help some of her friends that are suffering in various ways in their lives.
This woman is selfless to a flaw sometimes. Sometimes I think that she should concentrate a little more on making herself feel good.
She inspires me to be a stronger and a more giving man. Very often I feel that despite my various spiritual technologies that I employ to keep me centered and egoless, there is still a long road to travel. I need to know that the work is never done.
I choose to think of this woman as a wonderful mirror that lets me know that its ok to hurt, as long as you do something with it......Help others, hug a duck, make a difference. Write a book about your shortcomings, so others can benefit. Something.
I am grateful on many levels for this woman's powerful and prophetic prescience in my life. "Everything happens for a reason" she always says....I used to just brush that statement off as a parable of the times. However, I really am starting to believe that meeting her, was certainly no accident.
It was a very bright moment in the light, that was obviously meant to be.
