I feel the...That is a lovely thing to say and feel. I feel the same way (without the hubby and kids 'cause I don't have those). <br /><br />The thing that gets me down at times is my health. My body was damaged extensively during the military: a broken hip, a rotator cuff that can't be repair (I can only carry about 3lbs with my right arm), a messed up foot, breathing problems, a blood disorder... and well, you get the point. <br /><br />When all my ailments hit me at once, I say the same things you say at the beginning of your email, then I think of the guys injured in Iraq who will never walk, the ones who no longer breathe, the one who have to pee in a bag... and I give thanks for what I have: Me. A little broken and in constant pain, but still Me and still here.<br /><br />P.S. You can claim my Masters Degree any day you like. I'm getting a second one, so you can have the first. And, just so you know, I have 3 degrees and still make no money lol. Okay, so that's my choice. I could go back to a government job, but you know what? To hell with that. I would not change the joy of writing (even with the uncertainty of freelancing) for any 200K job in the world. I'm sending hugs, and a zombie in a pink daisy spring dress ;-)<br /><br />Sorry for comment-jacking, but's your damn fault for writing such thought provoking post.Magaly Guerrerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18295455026184103230noreply@blogger.com
