our imperfect perfections
Bobby, We strive to be achievers and a rewarding life by helping others. I think I am just realizing as much as I give, it can be 100% I am not God, I have no supr powers to be a hero, I can only be me and what I can give is the physical use of my hands and brain, I have no special healing in my hands.
When I help others like I wanted to Fix my daughter, I could do my part, but it took team effort, I can not be a team, We need a support system.
Our friends, family, church, medical, even meditation if that is our thing. But, You are successful already in what you provided. You have a reward and so does your friend. It may not have been the outcome you were predicting, but his wound is closed, there is healing going on. Perhaps some of the slow healing is in his body, not your care.
Your hands and talent to nurse him were a special thing. I could not have provided that. I dressed my daughter wound after it closed with a skin graft, not when it was open. You’re are a special angel to the friend for the finances he saved as I bet he did not have the resource and without your talent he could have potentially lost his life.
We have to learn to accept our small miracles when they come, face our human limitations, and know our hands are mortal, but our hearts are our real asset and talent.
I thank you for taking care of this friend, Always just give what you can, no expectations except, that one day wound change, and to the next. Not the long picture.
If I need a friend like you, I hope there is one near,
Di
