Ali has been so sweet and cuddly with me recently. I think the meds have relieved pain and/or discomfort so that he is feeling more sociable. I hope this is a good omen.<br /><br />kitty - yes, it has been a challenge in many ways. I always think these experiences make us stronger if we learn from them. And what a reward!

It's fun watching you transform into the person you are now. What a difference in just a year. YOu should be proud of all you've done. There are a lot of us out here that are so darn proud of you. <br />Ali is in our prayers. He is such a sweet little guy.

I don't recall being wary about stepping up to any task I've had, emotional or physical, but once into it, I sometimes wondered if I'd taken on too much. I'd never lived alone. I'd not had to find out what I could or couldn't do, because my family has always been there to kiss my skinned knees and sometimes finish what I'd begun. I missed having someone who shared the daily grind to talk with at times, to get feedback or to pull strength from. The retrospective view is wonderful. I'm both proud and amazed with myself for the level of achievement I've reached. It feels so good to know *from experience* that I am as strong as I imagined.<br /><br />Thanks for the note.Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-73414346305232907692006-09-04T14:33:00.000-06:002006-09-04T14:33:00.000-06:00Your words about how far you have come and what yo...Your words about how far you have come and what you have been doing for yourself made me think of this online article about "being your own village"...<br />http://www.dailyom.com/articles/2006/4671.html(M)aryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10753777348163655324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-64242967315070765382006-09-04T10:21:00.000-06:002006-09-04T10:21:00.000-06:00Walker - About blogs, yes I have that problems, to...Walker - About blogs, yes I have that problems, too, and in fact most times I come to your blog, I can't even read, let alone comment, because of some irregularity. It is insane.<br /><br />What/who - yes, I agree, and I'm glad you noticed the nuance. "What" I was for a long time was not "who" I am. That is the transition I'm making, learning about the part of me that was eclipsed for so long by the "we." It is not always easy or fun, but I'm loving the process and what I'm learning. Life can be amazing, can't it?Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-24126402407040880752006-09-04T07:06:00.000-06:002006-09-04T07:06:00.000-06:00What we were no he is right but who we were, that ...What we were no he is right but who we were, that will always be there.<br /><br />The grief never leaves.<br />It’s not supposed too.<br />You’re supposed to cherish it and keep it in the same spot you keep those precious memories.<br />Grief is but love, not lost but remembered.<br /><br />It’s good that you are swimming on top of the water and finding who you are once again.<br />I really enjoyed this post thank you.<br /><br />Sorry about the anonymous I have problems commenting on some blogs as me.<br /><br />WalkerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
