I am grateful to the Almighty because on this July 4th weekend I have much to celebrate.
I live in a free country.
I am free. It took me a while to understand the concept. I was so abused by my mother and the creature that I married that I had no concept of freedom. I knew how to be afraid, beg for love, create strategies for survival and keep out of the way of my abusers. I did not know how to be free or enjoy freedom. I knew how to keep myself safe.
I finally have a positive perception of freedom and I am loving it. I am free in the present. All we have is the present. The rest is a false picture which needs to be burned in the hot sun.
Yesterday I practiced meditation and then I practiced yoga. I invited my friend Margie to join the class and she loved it and is coming back on Monday for class and then we will do lunch. I was able to walk and do some chores. Freddy put all the furniture back on the deck and I used it last night. I gossiped with neighbors too!!!
Today I will attend services at Plainview Jewish Center.
I am grateful to the Almighty for my new freedom.
Thank you!!
