Getting Ready

In the midst of all the troubles and turmoil, I feel strangely comfortable.  My life is about to change.  I am 48 years old and I have been given a long glimpse of the freedom and joy that lies ahead.  Big chunks of insight are coming together.  I am finding out who I really am.

I am living an amended life.

Yesterday I was at the funeral of my friend and doctor.  He lived 10 years with ALS and never stopped fighting. That's how much life meant to him.  He told his daughter -- rather, he spelled to his daughter -- who was struggling through a tough time in her life ... "i can do it.  you can do it."

I can do this.
