Stories of Kindness from Around the World

I got off in mid June for my summer holidays and returned mid August (we teachers need long breaks to de-stress lol ). Back to work 2 weeks then fell resulting in need for surgery involving metal plate and artificial bone transplant. 8 weeks on a zimmer frame and progressed to crutches, to no crutches to limp. Still limping slightly, this will improve, but I'm back to work on Tuesday. This was not a good place for me to be because I'm a very strong and independent person.

During the past 4 and a half months I've been very immobile. Despite this though I've been active. I've been working on Me on an emotional and spiritual level.

I've developed an even stronger sense of self and I don't mean that in an egotistical way. I have, just this last few days, connected with the Divine IN me (I've always been aware of the Divine external to me). I have been able to join the dots in a stronger and deeper way than ever before. The penny has dropped and I have caught it. I have an inner strength and peacefulness that I would not have achieved had I been at work.

I believe my accident was no accident rather it was the Universe telling me that some lessons were overdue in the learning and space was cleared for me to focus and gain perspective. I have been studious (our lovely Mish knows I've been doing my homework 😇).

I'm still a work in progress but I think we are always a work in progress, there's always room for improvement. I will be watching carefully to see if anyone I work with, students included, see more of the Divine in me. I'm sure they will.

Thank you my friends. You have been here with me, propped me up, kissed me and hugged me and told me Time would also bask me with love and support and you were right. You have been a beautiful shining light for me, I've seen the beauty of your soul and felt the love of your heart. I truly felt your love and lIght and I will always feel a deep love and appreciation for this. Be assured, if I am not on the site as much, you will still be in my heart and my soul will still feel and love our connect.

My eyes, heart and soul are fresher and more vibrant than ever before and I thank God for time out of the hum drum of my life to get a stronger perspective. As I said before, my accident was no accident. Blessings my dear, dear friends. X
