It seems that today I am "updating" past blogs. Then I realize it has been a long time since I blogged at all. We are not sure what is going on but I have been pretty sickly the last couple of weeks. I'm sure it will pass.

 

Well we got an email from my boss that he would like to meet my wife and I for lunch on the 19th or 20th. That means that he wants to meet us on my 6 months since my stroke date. My company told me when all this started that they will hold my job for 6 months so I'm sure he is going to say good bye and good luck.

 

I know there is no way I could do my job in the near future. I am beginning to feel like I will never be able to go back to the work I did. Even though I feel I'm about to chalk up one more loss. I have known for a while this was comming. As Asha said below this could be Gods way of putting me on a different track (my interpretation of her comment). I do actually believe that but the unknown is alwasy scary and even more so when you go into it with fewer strenghts (or maybe just different strengths) than you used to have.

hey AJ:

 

one of my spiritual teacher once put real nice way that we don't have control over our birth and death, and middle what little control we have, we make big deal about it, why can't we just leave it on God wherever he may lead us, we will put our best efforts in whichever way he directs us, with this philosopy my anxiety level is generally down to minimum

Hi AJ, I can relate to what you are saying. My job also said they would hold my job as long as possible, if it wasn't open they would assist me in another position. Well I finally came to acceptance, that I could not go back to what I did.. this fact wasn't made any easier by the Psiatrist that told me that within a year I would never know I had a stroke. Well I guess her crystal ball isn't any better than mine.

 

I also try to think of it as ... time to slow down and smell the coffee..

I found my way here and maybe that is part of acceptance and giving back?
