Healing:
the process of making or becoming sound or healthy again.
After a couple of days away and months and months of pain, I feel that I am at a point where healing can begin.
My back, which had given me fits since December, has been a non issue for about 5 or 6 weeks now.
Both of my hands are starting to be functional again (I have about 50% use in each of them).
In general, I feel as if I am on the mend.
This is a very good thing, and the reason I have chosen the word HEALING as my August word of the month.
Notice I chose healing and not healed or healthy.
I am not quite there yet.
Still, it's a far cry from where I had been.
Sure it's still frustrating not being 100%.
Simple tasks like turning a door knob or plugging in my phone charger are still a challenge.
The good news is that the overwhelming pain has subsided which is a blessing beyond belief.
News flash:
PAIN SUCKS!
There are signs all around me that summer is winding down.
The stores are loaded with items for back to school.
Baseball season is heading towards the fall classic and football season is about to kick off.
The Jewish holidays will be here in less than 3 weeks.
Before you know it, the weather will change and so will the colors on the leaves of the trees.
Soon it will be time for harvesting.
As I heal, I will have the opportunity to pull things together and to prepare myself for that harvest.
Without a proper harvest season, the winter that will surely follow can be a daunting proposition.
I am grateful for the healing and I look forward t the time when I am healthy again.
