This path leads to…
We all have a variety of anniversaries that are celebrated, birthdays, marriages etc are ones we tend to receive cards for and are celebrated, today however is a very different anniversary in my life, but not one I’ll receive something bought from Hallmark or one I want to celebrate.
So what is it? Today is the 16th anniversary of when I was originally diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, I’d been living just outside Denver, Colorado in the USA, it was a devastating shock, even more so than it would be normally as it was only two years after I’d made the life changing move from England to marry.
However, on reflection this could be an anniversary of me ignoring the advice of the doctors or the anniversary of me standing firm against the rushing waters or me deciding and proving how to win against the odds.
There is also the difference that I talked about yesterday, falling in love and how this deep seated emotion is relieving stress and filling my heart with joy and happiness and giving me so much optimism for a life of love, which as I previously said, I thought would never happen again, now I know it is and it is making it so much easier to walk the path less travelled.
The path I’ve chosen to follow isnt the smooth, paved and easy path, instead I chose the incredibly challenging one, full of awkward obstacles, the one 99% of people wouldn’t take. But it’s the one with the greatest rewards, the one that gives me a prize far greater than the Euromillions jackpot… this path leads to the best reward ever…
This path leads to Life.
