You know what I've learned this past year? THat there is so much more to learn! I do think it can be right in front of a person but at that particular time, it doesn't have much impact or make much sense.
I told my daughters last year (when I turned 48), that the summer I turn 50--next summer--that I'm going to go to N. Italy with them to check out where my ancestors on one side of the family came from...and I'm going to feel well when I do it!
I missed their college graduation because I just didn't feel up to traveling..I missed being there when a military daughter arrived back home after a year in Afghanistan...same reason.
It would make more sense if I were an alcoholic or took drugs for why my liver has been bad--but it is a big percentage better than it was last year at this time--I just want it all better...so in learning for myself, I'm glad to pass on to you and others what I continue to learn-- it very well could be an important key.
