Holidays and a Grateful Heart

I did not write this and I believe it comes from one of my Sun Magazines, but wanted to share with you as a recovering AFib person who is experiencing a traumatic life event and so I am humbled. Even as I have eaten correctly and grown strong physically to peak and not smoked and drank moderately, I have been reminded by the Universe at large that is kicking my behind and has my attention that I am not in control and cannot think my way out of this - even with my Marine Corps training to "Adapt, Improvise and Overcome. I never thought a steady heartbeat and the quiet would bring me so much happiness. From an existential secular humorist with warrior buddhist leanings I wish you all a wonderful healthy future.
