Be Thankful for your Suffering.

Hooray! I survived Covid (actually, being vaccinated I recuperated quickly.) But I got shingles at the same time! I feel somewhat slighted because I couldn’t separate the Covid experience with the other ailment.

I’m not complaining. Soon I will be jumping around. I try to live as I teach and I am thankful for this temporary discomfort. Suffering is not bad but a normal human condition. I hope this goes away soon, but I am glad it has helped me become more compassionate in understanding the pain of others.

I’m not really the outdoors type so even if I were better I would probably not be climbing a mountain. But I do have a nice bed, a pen and pad, and many who love me. So today I will write an award-winning screenplay.
