Is it just me that longs for a safe, quiet place where the world can’t harm or disturb my existence? I picture this view from my favorite dock on a lake in Wisconsin – the water gently lapping over the rocks of the shoreline – so peaceful and calm – soothing and lightening my soul.
My mantra this month has been forty-one and done. After my forty-first surgery, a rough one, I am so ready to never plan another – to be finally finished with reconstruction and laser and the drive for improvements with my burn scars. My desire to have healthier eyes with lids that properly close started a series of procedures that hopefully will pay off down the road.
But I’m feeling my age and my body protests those drugs for anesthesia. Recovery was so much easier when I was 30! Truly – I just want to be content with who I am and where I am at in life.
Come new storm or tempest, I’m okay. The foundation of my life is strong. i have faith to weather the latter years…with hope and a prayer for calm waters…
You are the best Mona, may you always have peace and calm waters.
Thanks Sherrie! You help me so much with the stress part! Love you!
Tears and prayers. Your eyes see so much, your heart holds so much. I love you.
