constructive thoughts

To write about everything in ones life is an arduous task. This is especially true when your expression is through only a single method and single location. I use a computer in an office which is adapted for my use. I do also have a laptop but setup and comfort often limit the spontaneous capturing of thoughtful inspiration. I have noticed that my desire to document events has waned and I am become silent in my cocoon. This is largely a consequence. A consequence of fatigue and discomfort. Also a desperate sense that I am "running out of time" so I should not waste time with flowery prose. The reality is less dramatic and a more believable, I just waste my time doing non-constructive searches and fruitless activities.

If you are amongst the many regular readers of my blog or an e-mail correspondent than I humbly apologise for letting you down. I won't promise to do better, just to do my best at being better.

In my next post I will put some pictures of recent events.

one day to be free

I try to ignore the pain.
I distract myself
There's so much beauty in the world
There's beauty in people
nature draws me outside
I look through the window
a new pain appears
the longing for freedom
to stand to leave the wheelchair
to walk barefoot
to lie down in the shade

one day
one day without the pain
one day without the fight to sit
one day to be free
