Life Renewed 

First step forward

My first post....hhmm.. Honestly I didn't think I'd blog again. I just got bored with it all and it seemed like such a competition. This time maybe it will be different. I'm going to write what I feel and what I want. So put on your seatbelts and hold on for the ride.....

For the first time in quite a while I feel alive. I feel as though I'm waking up from a long, long sleep. I look around and see the normalcy that fills my home, my life, my heart....And I realize that it's beautiful. For so long I took so much for granted. I was struck down three years ago by a failing marriage and then a life threatening disease which stuck by me like a best friend in a shopping mall. I couldn't see past those things to see much of anything. When fear is your constant companion you learn to shut your eyes pretty quickly. Alas...the fear is gone and both matters have resolved themselves. So life begins again. Hooray for second chances.
