Although things like accidents happen in split seconds, it isn’t in the mind of the recipient.  I remember thinking, before moving…before opening my eyes…”okay…be prepared because I don’t know when I open my eyes..which side of the door I’ll be on”. Then I slowly opened my eyes, realizing I did not go through the glass, I did move in slow motion as I turned my head to look back at my daughter, who was sitting on the sofa. Her facial expression/mouth wide open was frozen like for a second like my face just was on the glass. We looked at each other like that…until she then said “what the hell?!”. Now to my credit please know this was just 6 months before a lemon…grapefruit sized brain tumor was dicovered in the front of my brain, leaning to a hard left..#judgement. 

Things like that and my husband of almost 30 years dying of cancer really puts things in life into perspective.  Really….it’s all small stuff. 

Choose happy
