Life Challenges
Have you ever stopped to think about
your life challenges? Talking about good and bad. Life throws us curves
everyday and whether we are ready to take them on sometimes; we have to. Like today I worry about my family.
Right now, I’m facing the fact which is life or death of my granddaughter. The
doctors have told her she needs to find a donor for a new kidney, hers’ are
shutting down. She also needs a new Panaceas, which you can’t find a donor for
that, it has to come from a person who dies and the organ can be harvested
shortly after death.
My challenge is how to
get around without walking on my left foot. I broke it two weeks ago. I have
this huge boot on it and not suppose to put weight on my foot at all. It’s
really hard to use crutches and carry anything. So to make things a little
simpler I have a pouch around my neck which is small that I can carry my phone
in.
I also work, which I’m
suppose to keep my foot elevated. Try that sitting at a desk! Then there is the
problem with dealing with your clients. They want everything done yesterday, and
you are in so much pain you can’t even think straight. Forget about taking
drugs, they only make you sleepy and make your thought into foggy territory. So
forget the drugs and muttal through the pain.
What are your life challenges? On a daily basis, or
monthly, how about the year? Have you thought about it? Is it taking on a new
job? Making a life changing decision? Or maybe just deciding what to have for
dinner. Everyday we face our fears, our hopes and our dreams. Whether it’s
small or large, we pray everyday for a better life and the knowledge to make it
better. It’s up to us to make our life’s better and to face our daily challenges
head on.
I’m a writer and my challenges are to help my
granddaughter find that new kidney to keep her alive for her two small children.
To help her, to be able to see another Christmas with them. To continue writing
my mystery novels and to keep my business running to help me pay my bills and
have the type of life I want for my husband and I.
It’s almost like having a bucket list. What’s on your
bucket list? Have you checked off anything on yours?
MAY
GOD BLESS.

Laura, my thoughts and prayers are with your family. Waiting for the organs needed must be heartbreaking. You asked about my personal challenges. Our blended family has lost eight people to death in less than three years. Our children lost both their dad and step dad in a four month period. This means both mom's are now widows. My granddaughters lost both granddads in less than three months. We are dealing. We do not expect sympathy. We just need to learn how to live with new reality. We do know that we are stronger than we ever thought possible. Hugs for you !
