Dear Rita Mae Brown,
My stepmother is home and beginning
her recovery from the stroke. The body is an amazing work of art. What other
thing, living or not, can sustain injury and sometimes recover completely with
fresh skin and new cells?
I envision all things living, yet some
life is more regenerative than others. It has been explained to me that with
her recovery, the brain will compensate by actually building new avenues to
accomplish what the damaged sections used to do, finding memories, continue
directing functions and such.
We are so spoiled, that we complain
about what doesn’t heal or begins to ache, when in every moment there is a
fascinating process taking place inside our body and in the energy field we
claim as our own. As with all things, I find it reacts more kindly to
appreciation than grumbling. I’ll try to remember that myself.
The professional associate that I
connected with on a kindred spirit level has exchanged phone numbers with me. I
am looking forward to chatting with her. In a way, as Christmas approaches,
this new friendship feels like a gift. I don’t make new friends often as people
are too busy being people, myself included, to stop and say “hello”.
So, hello Rita Mae Brown, here’s
hoping you have a splendid day,
Loraine
