I recommitted to living well & love yesterday morning then almost died last night. Funny that huh? Maybe I was being asked if I was sure?? My answer, "YES, I am SURE!"
I started the day with a bowl of superfood enriched oatmeal, walked my puppy-like 15 year old golden retriever then went to the gym. I swam farther than I ever had before. I was scared and tired but I pushed myself to stay at it and felt proud once I succeeded. I had a great heart-to-heart with my partner. She made me lunch while I went over my notes for my very first laughter class for GLBT Veterans (which I was über excited about, being one myself)! Then things changed...
On my way to class a woman ran a red light. I slammed on the breaks and maneuvered to avoid being hit full force on the driver side when all of a sudden I got rear ended by a Ford Expedition. The car I was driving was totaled and I walked away without a scratch. No one else was hurt and the other 2 cars were free from damage. Even though my body hurts today, I am thankful. I am alive and in this morning's meditation, I found a renewed purpose for life.
