The bodies God designed and we live in are amazing things. Looking back and reflecting on the trauma and how banged up my body has been, it’s nuts to think it was 8 weeks ago that this horrid thing happened. For someone who hasn’t broken any bones (knock on wood) until now. Not knowing the healing and recovery process and how it works. I was in for a rude awakening thinking I could hop back up on my feet quickly. Patience is a virtue that I undoubtably struggle HARD with and don’t handle well. I give grace to so many, but myself? Not a chance. I thought if only I pushed harder to get better faster then I could get back to everything that was planned out... yet our bodies don’t heal like that, quite the opposite. They need rest and restoration in order to heal. Not an easy lesson or pill for me to swallow. I learned this lesson the hard way in my rehab for the tibia that was broken that I am just now able to semi-walk on without assistance (only for short distances. Trust me not pushing it) God is not only healing me externally through this, but internally - emotionally and spiritually. Asking for help, receiving said help, relying on others, speaking up for my needs, saying no, giving myself grace and rest, being patient with myself and with the healing process, listening to my body’s needs, understanding boundaries of limitations and others. Just to name a few. If I haven’t already told you myself or said it aloud - Thank you to all those who came (and keep coming) to help me during this time and when my mom was here. Thank you to those who have fed me, driven me/mom, kept me company, visited the hospital, sent gifts/flowers, checked in on me, and last but for certain not least - all the prayers you have poured over me. I am overwhelmed and grateful by the outpouring of your love. Forever grateful for your friendships and love, I wouldn’t be where I am in this process of healing with out your help. So #thankyou #loveyou 💗🧡 (at North Hollywood, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4tW5tzgbXt/?igshid=1839s82973kwb
