Peaceful easy feeling

Short entry today.  I don't want any of  my followers to get bored.   Glenn is going to have cataract surgery in a couple weeks.  Poor thing he cannot see out of that bad eye.  It has really affected him physically and mentally.  So he is going today for a consult.  Please keep him in your prayers too please.

As I was sitting on the couch beside him last night, I had my glow worm hat on...he said "you look so less stressed..more than I have ever seen you".  He said my age lines (what age lines) were diminished and I just looked calm.  I said.."ya know..I do not feel one bit stress or worry." How can I not,... I  am thinking,...I have cancer.

I said...I feel peace,  I honestly do not feel any stress over this at all.  Of course I still have the regular every day worries of being Mom and wife.  Is Derek eating, is he sleeping, does he need me.  And Katie...is she ok at home, is she stressed at work...is she eating?  Ya know just usual stuff.

I am not worried about cancer (oops Chuck) (BBC for you Kerry).  I do not think about my hair, I don't think about money.. now that we are one income.  I feel calm. I feel loved and comforted.  I see so many caring friends around me,  I am not alone.  I feel self worth.  I feel special.   I am learning to let go of the negative that one can accumulate.  I am finding that some so called friends are really not. I want to say I am not the cancer..I am still me, so you don't have to ignore me!  I know it is hard for people, me included,  just don't know what to say.  So they ignore you and maybe it will go away!!!
That's Ok  I got plenty others who are not afraid.  Thank you.

So this is my lesson for today.   Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

  1. As we are, Don Henley and Glenn Frey and the boys would be so proud of you! You make our problems, what problems? seem so small. You're an inspiration to us! We'll be praying for Glenn as well.
