I have found acceptance takes time. There are many losses with RSD. I tend to leave claw marks as they say. And yet how can I receive if I do not let go? All in good time. I will learn a lot from the 3 year old about acceptance, we just find different ways of doing things. Improvise, Adapt and Overcome :-)
I wrote out a long story last night, to share my journey with you, only to find out it took too long and it went POOF, oh well maybe it was more for me. I was listening to Jim Croce the whole evening loud with the earphones on. It was awesome, fed my spirit. Talk about a blast from the past. Someone had asked how I was, and they shared the Jim Croce song Age on youtube with me. Music is healing.

peace

Thanks for sharing Zinnia. I love to hear about people's journeys. I think your writing would have been extremely interesting. I love to see how such things unfold, as our storied histories identify who we are, where we have come from, and where we are going. I believe there is so much to be gleaned from those, so much to be shared and learned. Ahhhh, and music.... nothing better to soothe the soul and encourage the heart, as you put it.. Music is healing.. INDEED.. Again... thank you for sharing!
I hope you have a wonderful day. Sounds like your husband is a gem!
