There are sometimes in life, that you awaken and your whole life perspective undergoes a metamporphosis. This is an awakening so strong that it send shock waves through your whole system. It is like the healthy teenager goes from football stud on the gridiron to a paralplegic in the wheel chair. Or a mother that swings from a happy mother to a broken person that has lost her kids, or a spouse that get greeted in the wee hours of the morning by a grim faced detective, with the message, " Im sorry to have to tell you"
When you lose your health, even for a few days, you long for the times when you didnt have an affliction. Such was the case when I came down with strep, I had heard of it, but had escaped it up until that point. Then boom, you lose your voice, you chest is racked with coughing spells, and wads of phlegm. You feel like you have bowled over with a Mack truck. You think you can sleep it off, but off you go to the doctor for a dose of antibiotics.
The process of healing isnt immediate, and neither is anything else worthwhile in our lives. The sun comes out after a long rainy season, to make us appreciate its healing rays.. Intimates dont recover their trust until after a time, and our bodies dont recover a toxic germ attack until adequate action is taken.
When the cycle is completed, thats when healing comes. So it is with life, we never really appreciate something until is removed and then we realize. When we strive to let go and let life teach us, it will bring rich perspective that we never knew. IF you ever notice some of the best plays, books,and productions occurrs after a time of great adversity...let life hand you a new pair of glasses to adjust your vision.
Adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are.”
