What Moved You Emotionally Today?

Blessings gal, winging your way... where are any two are present... you know.

I was moved just now by a very strange hunger I get sometimes. It seems to be to do with needing starches. I get this every so often. I think it could be pre-diabetes, but I am not sure. I do know I did not have enough starch with lunch, but I forgot about it until I felt this. I get annoyed by this feeling, as I am on a diet, and it blows that to bits! I feel like eating everything in sight when this happens!

Today is sometimes Easter over the shifts of leap year and back. It is a blessed day to me none-the-less, as this day is the 'anniversary' of giving birth to my son...his birthday.

I have not used that word before in connection of his day, however within our forums quite frequently the word anniversary is coupled with trauma or loss. I thought perhaps, I might add a splash of positivity upon that little vessel, a brief moment of shared memories cradling a tiny bundle. A pause for wonderment, acknowledging all of our entries while gasping for our first breaths.

Life! I feel moved today to honor all the blessings of birth as well as those of you I have met along the way.:hug: Today, I will not take this gift for granted. May hugs and peace find each of you during your day.

Today I was moved to happiness that it is not raining. I want to go out for a walk and look for flowers, which have started to bloom.

I have a new job since a few months and I'm working with my boss who has the practice for a long time. A lot of patients don't want to go to a new person (me) and want to stay with her. I find this difficult sometimes because I take it personally: I'm always afraid of rejection. Today a patient who was placed a few times with me instead of my boss said that she was satisfied with my treatment while she didn't want to come at first and wanted to stay with my boss, but was happy now. That was nice to hear. (I'm glad I didn't know before that she didn't want to come to me that would have made me pretty nervous!!)

This other elderly woman told me my boss had told her that I'm sweet (because I visited the woman at home to help her when she couldn't come to the practice) and the woman told me so I would know that my boss had said that positive thing. So sweet of her to tell me. There are a lot of people who don't give compliments or don't tell it when someone else said something positive. While it's such a nice thing.

My boss gave me a big chocolate chicken and a big easter egg for easter. So nice.

On another note I was moved by a woman who told me about family members that had died and two 16 year old who died in car accidents. So awful.

And a little child who will only become 24, she is 8 now and has a muscle disease that is very rare. She's in a wheelchair and can't turn around. It makes me think how grateful I can be that I can walk and move around.

I was happy to hear that my neighbor (who was broke yesterday) has some money today and went grocery shopping this morning. That was a relief. I was going to give her some food if she didn't have any, because she usually goes grocery shopping Monday mornings.

@Recovery4Me : Thank you so much! I also hope you had a wonderful day. :hug:

I was moved by my best friend bursting into tears when I told her "I love you" (in amicably way).

I got a phone call from the boss whle at work today. He called just before he left simply to say thank you for the hard work I'd done that day, and nothing else. That moved me.

My Parkinson's friend died. But I was there and activated EMS and his emergency protocol.
