It will be obvious to those that know me well, that I have not had the best of weeks….
In my darkest moment this week, I was challenged, by someone that cares to find one thing. A single thing that I like about myself…A positive thought about me…
It is obvious that I have so much to be grateful for.
I was moved to tears this week by the story of a young man making progress against all the odds. I was touched deeply enough to write to the family and offer help.
The reality of my condition is that I am fortunate beyond belief, and there in that sentiment, I find what I like about myself.
If I can do something to help someone, I will.
I may be too fat, too vain, too square, to masculine, but I also care.
I have an abundance of compassion and empathy to match.
My body may not be as I want it, but neither is Jonathan’s and he is making more of a worse situation, and I need to match his effort.
