Thanks everybody for the thoughts and prayers. For a while, my life was a constant roller coaster ride. Every day brought either great joy or incredible stress....somehow I got through it without looking back.
I'm fine...I really am. I feel alive, healthy, and content.......for the first time in many years. I'm moving forward...building bridges.
My favorite inspiration came from an email from Wesfrye. He was and is a great cheerleader.
It Takes Time To Heal
by Ted Hibbard
It takes time to heal.
Build a bridge
from now to tomorrow.
Sink the piers
deep into the Earth.
Pour in concrete
day by day,
a little at a time,
and let it set.
It takes time to heal.
It may feel very awkward,
as if you're making empty promises,
as if you're simply spanning empty space.
But someday, somehow, somewhere,
you'll find yourself
upon a brand new shore,
glancing back at the bridge
which you alone have built.
It takes time to heal.
