Kick Off Day for my new blog about life as a tetraplegic with truths (and sometimes humor) buried within it's content. A very dear friend once told me that, perhaps, my life purpose after my accident is to find a way to share the humor in everyday activities as I navigate this new territory of living with paralysis. Maybe she was right. Perhaps not. Spoken humor is so much easier to capture than in the written word. I'll let you be the judge of her wisdom. Humor is the way in which many, myself included, make seemingly unbearable life situations and pain tolerable...by temporarily distancing ourselves from the discomfort and looking at the situations we find ourselves in through the eyes of an observer who chooses to see the cup of life as mostly half full rather than half empty. So on with this journey of trials (and sometimes smiles), one baby step at a time.
