I hope for you to have a successful surgery, an easy recovery and a long stretch of beautiful, calm, leisurely days ahead. I envision you and Roy walking on a beach in Maine this time next year!

I'll be praying for your quick recovery. <br /><br />Your posts are really deep and give us all a lot of food for thought. I'm a workaholic too and really need to rethink that. <br /><br />God bless and keep us posted!<br /><br />Lots of love, Lesleylcampanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11322445517882981567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818397854598010989.post-49755281411492828142012-08-15T14:59:29.505-04:002012-08-15T14:59:29.505-04:00I also believe that everything happens for a reaso...I also believe that everything happens for a reason and, no matter what, there are lessons to be learned. I never wanted to ask for help and just kept rushing and doing...until my body literally took over and stopped me--LOL! It was a shock! Leisure. The pace of a snail on a slow day. <br /><br />There are positive things about being inactive. Your headache will be gone soon (you're in my prayers) and you'll be able to go back to whatever you want to do. Now is the time to think about what that will be. Leisure. Labyrinth. Must be here for a reason.

Putting a name to the problem is strangely comforting (though terrifying at the same time.)<br /><br />What you have written here today is the total embodyment of spiritual. Wow!! I have read it twice, and I find more profound thoughts and uplifting feelings each time. <br /><br />As always, you and your family are in my prayers.

I hope your surgery is soon and successful so you can move forward painlessly in your journey. P.S. What a nice labyrinth. There is a public labyrinth about 40 minutes from my home and I walk it as often as I can. It's amazing what it can do for mind and soul.

I know facing surgery, brain surgery no less, is not pleasant. We women who read your blog are a sisterhood who stand beside you and hold your hand. We will be with you all the way, believing, upholding you for a successful surgery and a wonderful new life ahead, HH free. Please let us know when the surgery is and please get your daughters to update the blog on how you're doing. I want to thank you for your honesty on your blog, for being unafraid to share your thoughts and yourself. We learn and are inspired because of who you are. Finally, here are two quotes from Mary Oliver (poet) to carry you through the surgery and into a new life. "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" And, " . . . the long work of turning our lives into a celebration is not easy."

Oh, I am truly hoping with all my heart that you will wake from having gone under the knife and realize that the pain is gone. Or less, much less. <br /><br />BTW, I looked at the camera you use, it looks to be a very good one in a reasonable price range. I'll take a look at it in the store.
