A starry night

The starry night last night was amazing had a great view of the stars. I went to Uluru (Ayers Rock) a few years back and had dinner under the stars. Incredible experience just to look into the nights sky. Last night was a nice cloud free sky and I went out and laid on the back porch. Even with my half blind eyes the night sky was incredible. The bits that I could not see I remembered from the past. A lot of things that I could have done once I still remember and what I do not remember I imagine. I remember running and how much I really did not like it. I remember standing at attention on military parades for hours, those days being sostraight and tall for to long and I am wondering today where I can sit down. I never surfed but I think I can imagine what that might be like. Just because I am chronically incurably disabled does not mean that I can not imagine. I am a human being with a brain (broken as it may be) I can imagine, I can dream I can see myself doing this ms life in away that makes me comfortable. My existence need not be impossible, hard maybe, but certainly nothing that I can not adapt to. If I lack the skills that I need I can search for them. There is a huge amount of information available to me, my life is full of options. I allow myself to change directions, stop and rest even shed the occasional tear. “BUT”, I like “YOU” must never stop moving forward. On to the next obstacle the next adventure. This is our ms life. It is ours to live to make the absolute best that we possibly can. To live to our utmost its best, always.

A life with Relapsing Remitting ms (RRms) does not have to be endless suffering, take that out of your mind. Yes, there are ups and downs, but this is the life we have. The life we live with. Go out of your way to make every moment that “YOU” have one of which “YOU: can be proud to have lived. and a contented memory.

This is your RRms life live it well and be happy with it

Nice post 👍 It’s crazy but in my dreams I am not handicap and do all kinds of things. I wake up and remember a lot of them. It is kinda neat not being disabled 🙏😉 Ken 🐾🐾

I try not to focus on what I cannot physically do but rather on the things that I can do. There are many assistive devices available that make nearly everything possible, to everyone. So, I keep smiling, because life is good, to me. :-D
