The Daily Affirmation (2016-08-19)

The Daily Affirmation

When I should have been, and arguably was somewhere near that, in a moment when all appeared lost, I serendipitously started a conversation that completely took me from that moment.  Instead of desolation I found myself somewhere else I wanted to be.  And it didn't feel as catastrophic as I expected it might be.  While things are not anything even approximating good, I don't feel completely devastated.  This is a scenario that I gladly accept, when the alternative is as bleak as it would seem from the outside.

After 27 years I've finally convinced a physician that there is a real, definable problem with my left arm, and I'm on the road to diagnosing it and, if I remain tenacious, fixing it.
