Mom had a great day today and is showing amazing signs of regaining strength and doing her Phoenix Rising from the Ashes routine once again. She is comfortably adjusting to her new living quarters and loves her never ending view of the parading activity and action right at her doorstep. Yes, she has had a stroke and is working with the attached challenges —but it has pulled her out of some default isolation and I now see her involved, interacting and clearly thriving on the surrounding activity. The unexpected bonus. I feel like she is settling into being comfortable and safe because she knows she is being taken care of. Accepting the care she needs brings her a new peace.
I needed this day because last night I had my second big meltdown since last summer and I tried to cry my heart out. I clearly pushed myself outside the box and let the hurt happen to me. Today felt like I was being showered with confirmation – supported with divine coincidences, clarity of purpose and the best conversation with cousin Sharon — EVER!
