This essay, A Glow from Walking, distributes the exhilaration felt in achievement throughout the other aspects of living, learning, and appreciating the progress and future goals met. Cool.

One door closes, another opens. Why has it taken so long? Those who have never known our situations can't possibly understand how we deal with our disability daily. Your situation is the opposite of mine. I am wheelchair bound and you, my friend are about to take off and open a new door for a better life.
Best wishes Kay.

Jesse, I'm proud of you. Your heartfelt and candid life story touched my heart. I understand how you feel. At the end of day I thank God for my children, grandchildren, siblings, friends and extended families. Than I give thanks for my body and health, even if I'm not perfect I still feel grateful for it. Us, Humans, do take the small things for granted because the truth is that we are a miracle.... everyday and night. So thank you for reminding me that.

Happy Christmas!

Gypsy hugs :)

It sounds like you working out is paying off, Jesse. :) Don't let that shine you gain be forgotten and keep on doing it. Walks as much as you can and write every day whenever you get an inspiration. That care and Merry Christmas. Thanks for sharing.

What an excellent attitude. I will have to show this to my brother in law, he is wheelchair bound and cannot walk with out a walker and very minimal at that. I feel that the radiating feeling you experience is the Holy Spirit, and your superb attitude.

    Take good care of yourself and each other.

You're doing great, Jesse! Thank you for reminding us of the blessing of being able to walk! And I appreciate the reminder to keep drinking more fluids. I just got another glass of water.
Looking forward to how God will answer our prayers for your successful surgery and your walking freely again!!

I really enjoyed reading this post. It inspired me and brought a smile to my face. You are doing all the right things to stay motivated and hopeful. I remain seated most of the day because of my back, but I try to stand and walk once every hour using a walker. Yes, it does feel good. POWER to the people who appreciate the ability to walk. I wish you continued strength and hope for a bright future.

    Thank you for this encouraging review. I can relate to sitting for an hour and needing to get up and stretch for a minute or two.
    I love the mantra Power to the people who appreciate the ability to walk. I need a bumper sticker that says exactly that. Although I don't have a car anymore what the heck. Thanks for your good wishes for continued strength and hope for a brighter future.

It does seem that we is writers as we go out and we walk our muse becomes very excited and gives us a lot of different things to write about. I enjoyed your writing here. I wish you the very best and I hope that you will have the day where you can be free at the wheelchair in the walker and be free to walk wherever you want to go. Patricia.

    Happy New Year!
