Greeting the Dawn
Recently, I’ve learned something transformative. I’ve learned that life is designed to be engaged with, not endured.
With Time Comes Wisdom
Imagine a young woman. She is pale, but she’s also Irish, so it is no great surprise. She can be described as neither willowy nor skinny but rather slender and soft. Her hair is a cross between blonde and brunette. Her face is adorned in freckles that are neither a constellation nor a smattering but rather an army. This young woman wears baby pink Doc Martens, a sundress patterned with daisies and a second-hand cardigan from Oxfam.
My Health Journey
All in all, my health is an ongoing consideration for me, but no longer a constant, minute-by-minute concern. My days no longer feel filled with the urge to get myself out of bed, until to feel as though the entirety of earth’s gravity is perched onto my joints. I live well, I get tired, I laugh with friends, I work toward my goals, all within the context of my health. Just like anyone else, my life is multi-faceted.
