Hello Everyone, Happy Sunday, Again!
 |
| I painted this, Myself! I'm so proud! |
I don’t know who
reads my posts or who writes their own. I don’t know how many of you kind
readers are truly interested in my topic[s]. [I know. I know, everyone is J.]
I have received precious few responses to my posts, via my website. That all
matters. But in other ways it don’t matter, at all.
Why
don’t it matter?
Because...
I am a writer.
That’s right. And these days, I have an expanded topic of health and wellness
to write about.
Seriously. Have you
ever had a stroke?
Neither had I.
In fact, no one in
my entire clan has ever had a stroke [that I am aware of].
I always thought of
a Stroke as something that either killed the patient, instantly, or they
recovered and came home. The other end is that the patient would come home and
I would be able to see the extent of the damage done by the stroke.
Again, never was I
related to any of these people.
Where am I going
tonight? I’ll tell you.
I think about my
posts constantly. I want them to be done well and orderly. I want them to be
interesting to anyone who glances at them. From my posts regarding health and
wellness, I want every reader to gather information that they can make use. It
is my duty—and yes, my calling—to help people live well, daily.
Learning to prevent
specific illness is a large and crucial part of living well. Of course, we want
to be able to recover quickly, from colds, headaches, etc. There is no end to
the list of approaches we can take to stay well.
Lucky for me, it
is, as I said before, my job to help yawl do this.
You are still
waiting to hear what I’m going to say, right? OK, Buddy, here we go: I am going
to present my posts as chronological accounts of my Recovery. That’s right.
There are and have been so many different pieces. This is a good idea. Each
time I see a friend or relative who asks me how I am doing, I come closer to
this decision. Their questions never stop and of course, my answering and
‘informing’ never stops, either.
So, while I was
sitting and walking and doing the dishes and thinking about it, I got a simple
instruction: ‘Just write it out, San. That’s the simple thing to do.’
Another problem
with this shift is that when it is time to write, I won’t. That’s right. My
fuzzy focus is left-over from the Stroke. I can work better toward a project’s
end if I am away from home. In the library, I can do well. That is, if I get
there on the right day, at the right time. I live in a small hamlet town and
people around these parts just talk a ‘lot’ in the library, and lordy, they do
talk loud. So that is no place for me.
Not only that...
My damaged brain is
healing much better these days, in big steps. I can easily see that my focus is
improving and so is my recall. Right now, it’s mainly my discipline that needs
attention. Strictly speaking, I can’t blame the Stroke for that.
I think I mentioned
this previously: my sister suggested I keep a chronological journal and rewrite
my previous days. This would help me to recall details. I agree. The problem?
Half the time I won’t do it, either. That is going to change, as I just gave
you my word, and I am following instruction. J
Whew.
I sincerely need to
sharpen my focus, yet again. I fully enjoy keeping the journal so I’m sure I’ll
stay with it.
Thank you for your
time in reading and for sharing this post. I will begin the next one Wednesday
afternoon.
LiveWellToday/DrinkTeaEveryday!
Love always,
