I Got This

It was just supposed to be routine bloodwork,
then it wasn’t.
Your severely anemic again.
All of a sudden all I was hearing
were all the things that could be wrong with me
and causing me to once again be severely anemic.
What I needed to hear
was no matter what I would be fine.
I needed the reminder that the Source
who brought me to this,
would bring me through this.
I needed the reminder that
I am an overcomer.
I knew I would need more transfusions
but what I didn’t need was to be told
I was not going to be okay.
Words are powerful
and they can help us manifest healing.
I had already seen that my body was self healing
with no pills and no transfusions.
I knew it might be a long journey,
but my body could and would heal.
I am an overcomer,
so please don’t tell me I’m not,
remind me that I am.
Prop me up with positives,
not negatives
and remind me
the healing is happening.
Feed me with optimism
because the reality is
one way or the other,
no matter what I am going through,
I will be fine.

Bless Them

Bless Them

Every morning I write in my gratitude journal
and I give thanks for at least 5 things in my life
I am grateful for/
However, this morning, it dawned on me,
that I never ask for those people, places and things
to be blessed.
There are so many ways and situations,
that my life has taught me wisdom.
My wisdom has come through the good times and the bad,
my wins and my losses,
my illnesses,
that which has bought me joy
and that which has reduced me to tears.
Everything and everyone
I have met on my journey
has helped me to understand myself
and life.
I have been blessed with the opportunity
to sit at the table of the included and the excluded,
the friend and the adversary,
and with my parents and those who call me mom.
So now I begin a new habit of not only giving thanks each day,
but asking the Ultimate
to bless them
for their part in my journey.

So this month we have been talking about meaning as a spiritual practice. I have shared with you the writings of the Dalai Lama about how life is like driving a car and talked about the meanings I have gotten from the sculptures of George Segal. This week though I wanted to just write about life. A dear friend of mine is going through a challenging time health wise and it has made me stop and thinking about the meaning of life. As I was praying about my friend’s situation, I was drawn to the book we are reading in the book club called Inside the Miracle by Mark Nepo. The first section of the book is called, Upon Seeking Tufu as a Guide. Nepo wrote:

And so I asked him, how is it God is everywhere and nowhere? He circled me like a self I couldn't reach. "Because humans refuse to live their lives." i was confused. He continued, "You hover rather then enter." I was still confused. He spoke in my ear, "God is only visible within your moment entered like a burning lake." I grew frightened. He laughed. "Even now, you peer at me as if what you see and hear are not a part of you." I grew angry. He ignored me. "You peer at the edge of your life, so frantic to know, so unwilling to believe." Indeed, I was frantic He was in my face. "And now that you have cancer, you ask to be spared." I grew depressed. He took my shoulder. "For God's sake! enter your own life! Enter!"
