Into the light
Monday, December 15th, 2008In the northern hemisphere we are heading toward the shortest day and the time of year that seems to be the darkest. Emotionally (and medically) I have been in the dark for a very long time. Very recently, I have come to realize that I held the key to understanding my life - and to its way forward. It was though that key is like a jigsaw and I have to figure out how to put the pieces together in order to get the full picture. As I said - I was in the dark and was trying to do the jigsaw in the dark.
This past 6 months has seen some fantastic people come into my life and they have cast light into it. The most important seem to have been bodybuilders – but where they’ve helped me the most have not directly involved lifting weights… It’s been in philosophy, psychology, optimism and spirit. They have acted as my antidotes for the despair launched at me by one particularly unpleasant epilepsy hospital. All of these marvelous people use this website.
Without the following three, I would still be in the dark and unable to complete that jigsaw mentioned earlier: Adam247, Carla Hampshire and dpd555. They all have an astonishing gift of helping other people to feel good about themselves. I am so very lucky to know them. All three write impressive forum posts - I enjoy reading them.
