It’s called life; it’s not convenient

Everything else being equal… But it is never equal, fair, or convenient. It’s how we respond to the challenges of surprise, incompetence, or the folk doing their best but who have no clue. I had an outstanding period of a few days of great care. However, this morning I have registry workers who only responded after my wife called on the phone. I’m close to one past my meal time and range of motion to protect against bed sores from not being moved. Had I known that there were not going to be people familiar with me or the routine, I would have stopped liquid consumption at midnight.

I’m listening to praise and upbeat music. I’m grateful Simon’s savior will try to come earlier- for those who don’t know, she is my wife. Oh, what a savior. Other times it is someone else who has time for me. I’m grateful. I’ll enjoy eating with remembrance that some people don’t have anyone to come to their assistance as I do.

I’m thinking, possibly I need to have the neighborhood canvassed for people who have the capability of coming to our rescue at the facility when much is not right.

In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity. Albert Einstein. Life is hard and then we die. The trick is to develop coping skills to really live instead of just being alive. Working toward a meaningful life with purpose is worth it. Our life is the creation of our mind. Buddha. Let this mind be in you that says I am equal to every difficulty of this day, Simplysaidbysimon. ALS – Aptly Living Strong.
