HEART TALKING

 I love my little man with the biggest heart. He makes me smile.

Yesterday; "Mom! I told my heart today that I love my heart...and do you know mom....my heart said; I love you too MAX"

That's Amore!

SICK~HUMOR

When I am sick my humor follows that pattern too. You cannot help being...extra silly...or sarcastic.

My doctor told me several times during my visit the important to laugh....so instead of "one apple a day keeps the doctor away...I try; one laugh a day keeps the pain away"

That's Amore!

THE COLOR OF YOUR BRUSH

Good morning! ..... Please forgive my big gap of silence on this, my blog, for quiet some time.   I am now back after a long summer with many memories of different kinds of emotions.  The coming autumn will be one full of Spiritual work.  When a challenge turns up in your life, its time for Spiritual work. Big challenges require big work --- imagine "Extreme Makeover - Spiritual Edition".  All the questions are turning up. I am going to write about them since it reflects so many different subjects in life.

With my Chronic Lyme Disease and my own stubbornness, it many times makes a kind of conflict within me. Stubbornness can be something good, if used in the right direction.  I used it wrong!  I stubbornly told my body I couldn't take it easy and relax when that is what my body was desperately asking me for.  My energetic mind wanted to do so many things, and constantly new things came up inside of me that I wanted to start. And of course in a big house with two younger children and twelve dogs, who was I kidding?

Unfortunately, I have now suffered a very bad relapse with the Lyme, and am back on square three out of ten.  I was so happy in August when I was on square seven it seemed, for quiet some time.  But I will be back, since I am a stubborn Swedish Viking, who has to learn to use my stubbornness in another way.  I must stubbornly eat better, relax more and deal with emotional conflicts more calmly until I get my new referrals to the Infectious Disease Klinikum at Tubingen University.

Meanwhile I have re-discovered painting.  I love it!  Standing outside in a wonderful atmosphere and just letting the brush take over the colors and the canvas.  When I do that, for a little while, my mind is floating away, and I cannot feel my pain anymore....

That's Amore!
