Yesterday, for the first time, I was truly honest at the doctor. My body needs to be checked out. I don’t have the luxury to put it off. Part of being honest is to tell people what I need. What I’d like. I’m slowly learning that I need to acknowledge the fear that consumes me daily. Today is a day that I’m fully resting. I’m basking in silence. And it’s quite a joyful experience.
Jesus
C’est moi
I’m here
To say
I have fear
Whether
It be rational
And help me
Not dread
Its presence
Taking care of yourself also means getting help when you need it. Glad you're getting rest and reveling in joy today.

I read down through many of your posts. I have been an isolationist most of my life. I know what it is to be teased, tormented and told you are nothing. I know what it is to not think you are worth anything or that you can't do anything right. then the Lord entered my life and all of that changed. we are worth more than we think. we are loved more than we know. We need to know the Lord loves us as though we were the only one on earth. You are beautiful in every way.
ReplyDeleteLove, Hugs and Blessings

Basking in silence does give us much peace, Regine. I'm glad to hear you're being frank with your doctor about what your body is expeiencing.
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
"Today is a day that I’m fully resting" that is good.
ReplyDeleteSaying a prayer for you.
All the best Jan
I love this. We have to be honest with our docs but sometimes it's hard. Well done.
ReplyDeleteSometimes basking in silence is the nicest days. We are supposed to get a lot of snow, so I will stay still and silent as well, and watch it fall.
