Limbo

Waiting on the results of a biopsy, news comes of a relative’s death. A loved one struggles to make sense of the world crashing in around him. War continues and though I extend my hands to help, I am growing weary.

Life is like this, I think. Just as we think we’ve found firm footing, the earth below us trembles. Time to push ‘pause’, reconnect with what is essential, and reset.

Funny, how it feels like losing control….

…or is it just me?

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.

  1. Well said, VJ. I feel weary too. Now seems such an emotionally tense time. “Pushing pause” is IMHO a good way to take control. May the biopsy give you answers and a way forward. Hug!

  2. It’s not just you, VJ. I feel the same and your keen observations are appreciated. Where is the balance and sense of peace? I hope the biopsy results will be good news. 💗

  3. Not just you, VJ! I love Vicki’s comment above – it’s so spot on. You have such a gift for honing in on what’s below the surface. That search for evenness that always feels just out of reach. May your reset be fruitful (and your biopsy be clean)!

  4. You are not alone, but you are unique, VJ, in how you crawl into my heart and tap vulnerability. It’s hard to explain, but with you… I feel an empowering connecting thread. Sending love. ❤️
