Please, please, please reread post 948
Brief insights were added that may relieve your mind of unnecessary weight.
I'm writing from the Midwest, holding Mom close. Her breathing is labored ... So hard to watch ... Always so hard to leave ... especially now, when the depth of our love for each other has become palpably transparent ...
I'd stay longer, but Will is at home ... awaiting my return ...
As you can imagine, with my heart always in both places, common sense suggests that I call upon insight into the magic of my mind to create a peaceful place within my think tank where both of my loved ones are held so close within my heart that I no longer feel torn ... You see, life is short, so during times of inner conflict, it's up to me to lighten self imposed stress in hopes of lengthening and sweetening whatever time I have left. And thus do I work at blending my needs with the needs of those I love until a simple plan shapes up inside my mind, because without these simple plans of action, the heavy weight of unresolved conflict causes my spirit to sink, and as captain of my ship, it's my responsibility to keep my spirit afloat ...
I'm staying with my friend, Marty, who lives near my mom.
Tomorrow night, dear friends, Emma and Mike, will visit with Mom, have dinner with Marty and me, and then, as they've offered to drive me to the airport on Friday, Marty can feel 100% free to meet his own needs ... Friends acting like family offer a life line when my spirit wearies of steering this ship, which is so far from home where Will awaits my return ... Balance in all things, as in time for loved ones to put their heads together, supporting me in my time of need, while at other times, they glean strength from me ...
Hopefully, today will prove as peaceful as possible, and the tale of my first date will continue to unfold, tomorrow ...
Wishing you a five star day,
Your friend,
Annie
