Patience

It was Senor Mike Stokes who said to me today :

"You have patience, patience like I have never seen."

Why thank you Senor Stokes!

I have to have patience today. It was not always so. But the stroke put me in my place. That is, I could not get any better

if I ranted and raved about how the stroke did me in.

There would be no point.

I was set back to zero by the stroke. Any everyday since then there has been something I cling to.

Be it the air around me.

Or the tree trunk.

Or getting to drive in my car.

Everything, because I am not dead yet.

I am not dead yet.
