This blog is inspired by many circumstances.. I was reflecting tonight.. December 20 2010, the night of a lunar eclipse and the night before my 39th birthday about so many things..
Birthdays sometimes have that effect on people.
I am an almost 39 year old woman..
I am a mother of a wonderful 13 year old daughter and an amazing 11 year old son.
I have been with my husband for 14 years.. and it has been a wild journey.
We live in a tiny town in BC of 300 people..
We have in our lives together.. been pot growers, bookstore owners, outlaws, art importers, venue owners, musicians, b and b owners, parents, artists, fools and geniuses.
Two years ago despite being a yoga teacher,and a pretty healthy lady, I had a hypertensive stroke.
That event alone changed my life in very significant ways.. then last year I was diagnosed with MS.
What does this mean.. so much.. I have tried to unravel it all and the last two years have been a real journey of self discovery,.. I think I know now what I am made of..
I have delved deep into the world of dis-ease..
Anyway in this pre-birthday reflection.. I have decided to keep a journal of the next year, the one before 40 and see if by doing this I can challenge myself to not wallow in the doldrums but rather to embrace life.. laugh and love deeply everyday..
