Christmas again, and for a consecutive time, this quietness and calmness has brought me to yet another reflection. Looking back, my year to date was filled with variety, yet in many ways I feel that I haven`t moved an inch from the last Christmas. The year since last Christmas has passed so quickly. It seems that it was only a month. No wonder I feel standing.
On reflection however, I moved, year on I have most certainly gained more wisdom, experience and most of all I am ever so grateful for everything that has taken place during this last year. Few more of my goals have been achieved, some are still to be achieved. This last year has been the third year of struggle with illness, together with my husband, particularly the last three months, where we had not known why his health deteriorated so rapidly and so much. Last week, after three months of asking questions, getting upset , angry and helpless in many ways, we have finally been able to find out. "The sudden change is due to the changes in the brain. Your husband brain is as if he was 85 years old, and you can expect further, sudden change in the future.The radiotherapy to the head is the main cause of this changes. As you have rightly sated, there is no communication between the brain and the body". It was a relief for me. Finally, after so long..... it is clear. I am very grateful that it is finally out, and I now know, how to manage this situation.
I am grateful to God, for the last twelve months, for the lessons I learned, for the people I met, for the work I have done and the goals I have set. Most of all I am Thankful for my health, and for the fact that God provided me with agility to fight and to pursue. Being determined to succeed at what ever level, is something that I have learned . It is not a virtue that I was born with. life has thought me this during my wort times. Yes, it is difficult, yes, it is very hard, especially when being persistent quite often is taken as arrogance. Persistence is a virtue, providing it is carried out in the positive way, a way that hurt no one. Without being persistent our life will be nothing. When we have goals, plans, dreams, when we want something so badly, when we are hungry enough for something, persistence is what drives us to that goal.
Often, our road to achievement is quite straight and smooth, at times it is filled with bumps and turns. My road is the latter, plenty of bumps and turns. Delays, stops, cancellations, which are "lessons" that I must learn from. My reflection this year is about those lessons. Have I learned what I needed to learn? The answer lies within me, it is me, who has the answer to this question. Have .... I ..... Learned .... All .... I need??? So far ..... almost .... . I know ..... I feel .... that ..... there are few more lessons I must learn. And I am ever so grateful for those lessons. Without them, I would never, ever , learned about my self. I would never know, what I could endure, or how resistant I was. I am very grateful for every day, every hour of each day, as I learn, I become stronger, wiser and closer to my goals.
What is your reflection? How your experiences have made you stronger, and wiser?
God Bless You All.
