Each of us probably has a memory which they can’t forget of where they were on 9/11/01 when terrorist controlled plans crashed into the World Trade Center and into a field in route to the Pentagon killing over 3,000 innocent people. I vividly remember watching the first tower come down during live coverage from a tv in my doctor’s office. I was shocked as the live coverage anchors and much of America.
Eighteen years later, I’m not sure how much healing has taken place across America from the horror of that moment. But I can honestly say now, Nineteen years after I received my MS diagnosis. I now consider my MS a gift and I have definitely healed. I have gotten crystal clear on what I consider to be most important in my life and I prioritize God, family, relationships, and helping others because I am so blessed.
I wrote about my feelings then in Chapter 3 of Woman Plans, God Laughs. For awhile everyone treated each other with kindness and gratefulness for each other and for being alive. Then people got suspicious and fearful, particularly of Muslims and the religion. I won’t wade into the great recession in 2008 or any Presidential Elections as I don’t want people who read this to argue with each other, lol.
I hope you are doing well also on your journey. I’d love to hear from you below. Peace.
