The Gift from the Universe

Good Morning, Legs!!!
Its the day after the worst Lupus flareup I've had in months.�
How are they�today?� Better, but not�great!

�I speak to my legs on a regular basis; as a way for me to be connected to my body even though its giving me pain.� It is so easy to be disconnected from the body in a mental and emotional and spiritual way when�I am in pain.� By having daily conversations with it allows me to love it, nurture it, nourish it, and to be accepting of it: all the limitations, disabilities, and disfigurements.�
I know this illness is a gift...from the Universe.� Who knew that I would learn to love my body, myself, and all my imperfections, and learn to nurture it the way it wants to be cared for.� I spent most of my life hating, loothing, invalidating, torturing it with yo-yo dieting, and damaging my esophagus and stomach by practicing bulimia....what a full circle I have come.
i am grateful each day for this gift that it has shown me the power of healing in each of us...as we decide our future and decide what we want in our life there is no greater gift than the Healing Power of Love.
