Today I am sick of being disabled and would very much like to be more physically able —It is one of those days and I wish to pay attention and move on. My normal approach to the difficulty of being me is to accept the unpleasant parts and focus on my gifts. The gifts of being slow and disabled include greater patience, deeper empathy, expanded understanding and more peaceful solitude. I am more able to see and feel those gifts if I, sometimes, allow myself to feel the negative realities also. I am also aware that I could be and have been a lot worse. Time for lunch!
