    Pride? Yes, absolutely. It is easier, however.
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Then maybe you need to take it as a win because you'll have those spoons to use on something more lovely?
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    I’m trying.

    Good news though, Jess has passed her theory test (third time lucky)

    Definitely take it as a win as it far better than struggling up and down the stairs. When I saw Jess passed her theory, I wondered theory of what, then I saw the light it was part of the driving test.

    Odd day today. Was so chuffed this morning with Jess. But this afternoon, was told that my best friend’s sister is in ICU. She’s bleeding internally and they don’t know how to stop it. They thought about sending a wire through the vein to cauterise it but a CT showed it was seeping out from lots of places. They really don’t want to operate as she’s just had her second chemo round and she has no white blood cells to counter infection. But she’s in agony and having to have blood treatments and transfusions to top her up......

    If you can’t fly, then run, if you can’t run, then walk, if you can’t walk, then crawl, but by all means keep moving.
