Embracing life with chronic pain and illnesses.

Blessings…

Blessings can abound

Even in the moIMG_6486st barren of spaces…

The intensity of a flare

Length of which is unknown…

Yet finally gives way

Returning you to your path…

Discouragement is easy

Given the hurdles thrust our way…

Our constant companion

Pain wants to be in the forefront…

Often we feel embattled

Emotions ready to boil…

Just as a geyser

Builds up to explode…

Allow a tear or more

To flow…to cleanse…

Allow yourself to smile

When your body is screaming in pain…

Allow yourself to enjoy

The infectious laughter of a child…

Open a window

To breath the fresh air…

Close your eyes

Ponder the positive…

The blessings around us

Take so many forms…

From the visit of a friend

To spend a few minutes…

The unexpected phone call

From someone you hold dear…

The ever gentle

Kiss from your loved one…

Your loyal canine

Who curls up next to you…

Pain though still present

Fades to the background…
