still here

“Life has its way, and it seems to me now that the object might only be to learn how to be graceful, to understand the value of a deep kind of acceptance.”

― Elizabeth Berg, The Pull of the Moon

i dig these images out of the archives, as I can’t hold my camera, and my phone is just not the same. Frustration builds as I hunt and peck for letters, and I am irritated easily with the computer. My arm gets tired and so I stop often to rest it, allowing the resentment I feel to waver some.

There are things I want to say about frustration and acceptance, as both have played a major roll in my days since this injury. But maybe the goal today is just to connect a bit, allow myself to put a few words down for proof that I am still here - learning to turn frustration into moments of growth and open communication.
