On The Other Side of Today

Yesterday I was getting ready to go into the hospital, and now I am grateful this is past me. I survived, and although I don't yet know the outcome (and won't know for a week), it is done and over and there isn't anything else I can do right now but go on with my life.

That is my focus right now. Actually, I have two things I am focusing on: taking life as it comes, and being grateful for what it gives me. My best friend took a day off of work to bring me to the hospital, pick me up, and then help me get groceries and take me back home. This is what friendship truly is, and I know I would do the same for her.

I have had people, friends and family,  express their concern for me, and let me know that they are there for me. I am grateful for that.  Tomorrow and Friday I get to rest because I have a colleague covering my classroom and a supervisor who arranged it and told me, when I said I could come back on Friday, to take the day off and relax. I am also grateful for this as well.

I have talked in this blog about men I have met. In the past several months, I have had great conversations with wonderful, intelligent, warm and funny men. While the relationships did not continue, I am happy that I had the chance to meet them all, and feel each has given me hope for future love. I feel gratitude for each and every one.

I am feeling that, no matter what, I am in a good place. And I am happy.
