2nd Anniversary
On June 13, 2013 I suffered a brain aneurysm. As a matter of fact I had two aneurysms, but one was leaking and killing me slowly. I do not recall feeling any pain while I was coming in an out of consciousness, but I do remember saying some interesting things. I remember only seeing white when I was out of consciousness and remember bright colors when I came out of surgery. My son and friends told me that I was a frightful sight, so what is new?! The thing is this entry is not about how I am here today sharing a story. I am here today to share how very blessed I am. How fragile life can be and in an instant a life can vanish. I am always amazed on the people that inspire me, the survivors of their hardships. These burdens could be physical, emotional, mental or even spiritual. But we all have our crosses to carry. Being a "Believer of Jesus" does not guarantee me a perfect life. Many of us carry the scars of living and continue on this journey of life. There is a word, "LIVING. Are we?! Everyday, I wake up with a fresh blank page. I just have to pick up the pen and continue writing my story, His story. I am blessed to know people who continue with their journey with the upmost of grace, and that is something I try to emulate from them. Sometimes, these people are passing through, but their stories of inspiration are there. Yes, there are some who show signs of giving up. Believe me, I know how that feels, but I will not. In the last two years I have experienced things I would never have tried. I opened my heart and let someone in, with no fear, and I am thankful for this man who came and went from my life. I have hiked and climbed small hills, but to me they were mountains, and I did it!! I will purchasing a bicycle soon, no, I am not going to become a spandex wearing bicyclist, not yet. ha ha Also, I am being inspired with more ideas for more artwork. I am reaching out to people who I have admired and want to get to know better. I am not as afraid of taking the chances that I believe I should have taken a long time ago. In all frankness, I believe I was dead for a long time, and it almost took death to show me life, again. It would be nice if I could say, that everything is of the upmost, and it is, with all its faults and disappointments, I am enjoying LIFE!! Glory be to God for his grace and love, and for the inspirations He allows me to see, everyday! Thank You, Father, Thank You!!!
