Gracefully

 Running

To the restaurant

As we got caught

In the downpour

Refreshing to 

The soul

The storms

Teach me more

Than sunshine

Ever could

Learning to relish

Seek the joy

Going to 

This new doctor

And seeing patients

In true need

Of relief

Yet being

So happy

Was a sucker punch

And a lesson

Of how

To live

With discomfort

Gracefully

  3. After a rain, sometimes there comes a rainbow. I hope you are finding beauty and relief from discomfort today, as you dodge those raindrops. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

  6. I love this. Living happy is such a good thing -- not always easy but always good. On another note, can you send me an address and I'll send something related to Michigan! jeanie@wkar.org

  8. I have a niece who had to have many, many surgeries as a child. My sister and BIL spent time in ICU's and specialty hospitals and she said whenever she was feeling bad about things she could look around and there were always people with worse problems. Perspective does help but it's still not easy sometimes!
    PS - I got your comment about your project.
    Can you email me your address so I can send something?

  9. You remind me of something I read about learning to dance in the rain (rather than waiting for the rain to end). :)

  10. Learning how to live with discomfort gracefully. Amazing words. I saw you comment on my blog about sending a postcard. Please DM me on Instagram and let me know what other thing I can possibly send you. Thanks!
