December Doldrums

And as the smog of December settled, instead of the happy winter chill it seemed like all it brought were coughs and colds and the delightful seasonal depression.

And as the steroids ended and my body struggled to fix itself I understood what pain and starting over truly felt like. Steroids made me relearn how easy it is to take our body for granted. The simplest thing like taking a straight step became a chore and my body hurt in places I didn’tContinue reading “With unimaginable pain …”

When It Pains…

So not much is told to anyone suffering from Multiple Sclerosis… you seem to be part of a secret society where the rules are different for each one of us. But unlike a secret society, we don’t meet at exotic, interesting locations… we usually end up in a hospital- easily one of the most boring,Continue reading “When It Pains…”

Goodbye…(To all those people and experiences who I’ve said goodbye to)

I really hate goodbye They make me sad , I hate to cry I question God and ask him why I really hate goodbye I don’t think it’s fair to let you go My heart aches but I won’t say so You made my life a better place Without you there’s a huge empty spaceContinue reading “Goodbye…(To all those people and experiences who I’ve said goodbye to)”

And the year happened

And it’s the same time of year that I usually love.. there are carols in the air, a slight nip, buying and gifting of presents and glorious xmas and new year plans – everything is the same and yet everything is completely different. This year tried me in ways I could not have imagined andContinue reading “And the year happened”

The face that I put on

So the writing has been irregular because i’ve just not felt well enough… With ‘The Verdict’ premiere just ’round the corner, it’s been rehearsal, rehearsal, rehearsal! But that’s not been what has kept me from writing….it’s just incredible and scary new life lessons I have had to learn. Everyone is an actor. Most people areContinue reading “The face that I put on”

Changing my Perspective

When friends ask me why I keep working when I’m sick or have horrendous pain because of a Multiple Sclerosis triggered attack, I never had much of an answer, except that I’m a workaholic and a bit nuts… But then I thought about it a bit and I realised that when I was sick andContinue reading “Changing my Perspective”

Done, dusted, forgotten about!

And now that the year is coming to a close, you start taking stock of everything that went by! Seems easier to take stock when the year has come to an end and suddenly the enormity of what you just went through hits you! Take a moment. Breathe. You made it! 2012 is over! Scraped,Continue reading “Done, dusted, forgotten about!”

Why?

Why is life not the way we want it to be? There is too much to do…too little time… Too much time…too little joy, Too many people, too few friends, Small beginnings, dramatic ends! To wait, to see, to wander, to be, To live, to breathe, to touch, to feel, To cry, toContinue reading “Why?”
