Someone just said to me that they thought I was really an unlucky person. Actually, the truth of the matter is that I feel like the luckiest person in the whole world. I can see to drive, I can ride my bike, breathe fully, move without pain, sleep with Sebastian and worship my Creator God. I have many friends all over the continent and a big family. So what if my son-in-law plugged my coach into a connection that zapped my tv, microwave/convection, vcr and Dish receiver? That will all be fixed eventually. Yes, it did happen yesterday. I am in town today to see about getting it all repaired and replaced. Thank God, my computer was plugged into a surge protection device. It fried that device but saved my lap top. I will move over to Americamps where I usually stay when in this part of the world.
I am going biking right now. Like I said, I am lucky, lucky, lucky. I never forget the year I spent unable to do anything much. I did kayak throughout that year. I lived directly on a beautiful estuary to Pamlico Sound in NC. I had a dolly for my kayak and was able to wheel it to the water's edge to launch. I would climb into it and begin to sing. Singing gave me sight therefore I sang songs I knew and made up songs. Sometimes I cried with the grief that I felt for what I perceived I had lost. It was a time of tremendous "IN SIGHT" rather than out sight. A time of learning and expansion. I spent much time in deep prayer and meditation for all those who were blind like me but didn't know it. Now I can say no matter what happens, I am the luckiest person I know and I am filled with the joy of this life.
Blessed Be, Donna and Sebastian
