Lately, fear and faith keep coming up everywhere. In my meetings, in my conversations, even in the books and podcasts I’ve been listening to. It’s like everything around me is pointing toward toward expanding my awareness, leaning into it, and being willing to explore what it actually means for me. I’ve been opening my heart and mind more than ever. I’m listening to the Bible, reading the Life Recovery Bible, and tuning into my friend’s “Godcast.” These things are helping me build on this very thin foundation of faith I’ve started, and I want to keep going. I want to see what blooms from it.
I’ve realized that so much of my fear since the stroke is tied to not knowing what’s next. What if I get worse, or what if I get better and don’t know what to do? That fear has opened me up to a much bigger awareness of life, death, everything beyond my little world I’ve been living in up until my stroke. Instead of trying to control that awareness, I’m trying to let go. I’m learning that I won’t ever have all the answers to my fears. So, I need to find another way. And for me, that way is faith and spirituality. This willingness is what’s giving me peace finally.
