Spiritual drive to college

Doc said walking is ok. Nothing strenuous. Walking 20-minute miles is pedestrian. Heart rate consistently under 80 while walking is good.

Driving north of Orlando to get my eye-health update feels like the day that i moved into my college dorm, freshman year.

Feels good spiritually

While it feels good mentally and physically so far, it feels amazing spiritually.

Why?

Because it did from the moment i became ‘blind’.

Immediately accepted worst case.

Still do.

But always hoping for the best to happen.

And the only way that works is to not have an expectation that it will.

Not Back to Glacier, spirit

First-world challenge, collaborating with Kasey on a solution in an uncertain future. The van is packed with our stuff and the keys (and us) are in Orlando.

Surrender to any notion of entitlement.

Three retina tears, including one that started to detach the retina, are a routine repair for Dr Kumar.

Nothing about this past week is routine.

It is all new.

All scary.

All uncertain.

As each day passes – and this is only day six since losing vision – the future options and outcomes seem slightly more reassuring.

By no means is there any guarantee. None are stated. None are implied.

Hope for the best. Plan for the worst.

Happy present moment.

So grateful to live in the United States, have access to great insurance and first-class (world-class) health care providers.

Blessed beyond measure.

16-second video: Never in a million years would i say yes to needles in my eyeball.

i want needles poked into my eye as much as i want to jump out of an airplane.

Scary is as scary does.
