This wasn't on my list--losing sight--despite the fact
I've worn
glasses since I was seven. It never occurred to me until quite
recently. I mean occurred to me as a factor that would
impact my living in ways more inconvenient than having to wear glasses.
Now, however, no glass corrects my dimming sight.
The blur of things
greets me in the morning,
limits my ability to do things, find things,
and read.
Perhaps this slurring is a gift.
Sometimes it's best not to see so clearly.
Shifting focus from outward to inward,
I'm surprised to find that all is not lost.
Love is still the answer.

LOVE,
Nothing so new sweetie--same ol'. same ol' thing...and I will see what can be done for them in 2013 when/if the health care issue finally gets solved by our reluctant government (I depend on medicare with a medicaid supplement) screws it's head on and settles the endless debate. But I'm only ruminating here, not mourning, not stumbling around...the post is titled INSIGHT--about diminishing factors-changes-aging and coming to terms with that, remembering that vision is internal as well as external. Nothing to worry about
Listen to the musis at "Shadows and Light...it will clarify the metaphor.
hope it's just cataracts which has an easy remedy.
michele, came over to visit...and this is beautiful but bittersweet. may health care do right by you. please.
