Today (by sarah)
Today I went for a walk, this was fanastic - approximatly a year ago I was in a wheel chair or bed bound, unsure as to weather or not I was ever going to see my child.
Today I remembered looking into the uncertainty of the abyss and how I came back from the brink.
Today I rejoiced in my slow amble.
Today I was the poet, the artist, the photographer
Today I saw buety in everything
Today I was grateful that I have a buetiful duaghter and that having a potentially fatal illness ment that I was in a hospital bed with Al by my side instead of going into London on that fatful day for so many - it could well have saved all three of our lives.
Today I sought out the meaning of me
Today I felt the explorer, the geologist, the scientist reawaken
Today I said hello to lots of random villiagers I met on my sojourn upon the common
Today I hugged my duaghter and read her a story and she was happy
Today I chased kittens to help them with thier house training and they were cute!
Today felt good
Today the sun shone
Today I remembered, and felt and planed for the future
Today I felt hope
Today I was free
Today I was happy
p.s. sorry guys I was just over whealmed by the buety I saw even if I did get bitten by a horse fly thingy - I took a picture of it and of the blood afterwards - I was in that sort of mood! hence you all have to read the gushy, moppy soppy emotions!

You have no idea how happy it makes me to read that. "Today" last year, I sat there with you, praying with every ounce of me that you and Jean and Al would all be ok, and Today I am so thankful that you are 🙂

I love that, Sarah, and have shown it to other folks. I sometimes feel for you being transported at such a critical time in your life and health into a different place, and I wonder if you are weathering the Winters and managing with the stairs and making new friends. Then I hope you can enjoy the positives, the space outside, the waterfall, the nature. Reading this gives me great joy through knowing that you are getting the good bits. Keep trying with the brown rice, though!
