LEGS

I have been thinking about how lucky I am to have two working legs! Sometimes they are thick, and I always am hoping to have them more thin. Years have made them stretch in places I’d rather they didn’t. The years have also brought on unsightly varicoses and a few aches and pains and a bulge around my ankles…

BUT

These legs have been good to me and take me where I need to go. I have tried to imagine what life would be like without legs – I don’t like it! I am happy they let me run them around without a fight. I have been able to see and be in beautiful places because of my legs. I have also been able to accomplish things with my legs I just didn’t think they could do.

Today take a moment with me to be grateful for your two legs.

Three cheers for legs. I am a fan of them myself. I like the eyeball and skin too. Thanks for being grateful.

Thanks for reminding me about my blessing of my two legs! I am grateful for my legs. I think I will enjoy them twice as much tonight on a fun fhe bike ride with the family.

I just finished a great book. “Driving Bell and the Butterfly”. It is about a man after a CVA Cardiovascular accident (STROKE). It was very humbling and reminded me how blessed I am to have a working body.It would be great for your book club or just a summer read.
