Although I am feeling so low right now, I have had two shocks that have made me STOP and count my blessings. Yesterday I had an eye test, and something has shown up on the back of my right eye. The optometrist is sure it's nothing serious, probably a tiny healed scar. But OH MY GOD it scared me. My sight? My eyes? Having been short sighted since I was 11, and quite badly so, I am used to wearing contact lenses and glasses, and not having 20/20 vision, but losing my sight??
Not being able to see my beautiful children, my family, my home, the sea.....it does not bear thinking about.
Today I found that that my dearest friends mother has died. My friend is 48. I am 43. I could not function right now without my mother.
Whatever I am facing, I am ok.
I will be ok.
I am lucky, I am blessed.
I have my senses, my health, my children are healthy and thriving, my family are well.
All is well.
I truly Count my Blessings.
