Its been sometime since taking time for my twilight thoughts, I am recovering from a further operation, this time the shoulder...next the other. I am working hard at being auto sufficient, and sometimes I have to laugh at myself as I attempt to hang out the washing , or chop vegetables with one arm strapped to my side, moveable only from the wrist, gracias I can use my computer. I believe that I am lucky, with all my joints and bone problems I can lead a relatively normal life, others cant, I appreciate everything more with each breaking day, Ok maybe I walk alittle like Charlie Chaplin(only a little) but I am still the same person inside, only that I am more sensitive to all things. I can´t run, play tennis, sit on the beach/floor..but I can paint , write, laugh and sing, No it´s not all highs, there are lows and I have learnt to deal with them, in fact I have learnt a lot and have valued things far more this last 3 years...but do we need to become ill to really appreciate life? I think not.
