Coming Out of the Fog

There have been a few times in my life that I have had to face some very difficult and somewhat extended health related challenges. I am not the best at this. I have yet to figure out not only how to be grateful, but how not to be the most unpleasant person ever while in the midst of these ordeals.

However, every time I see the worst starting to pass, almost like closing a heavy door on a section of my life I don't want to reopen, I feel this very real sensation of coming out a a dark pit of fog - and it is amazing. I can get excited about things again - art is more beautiful, my goals are more attainable, my husband is more fantastic, excitement for the future returns, and I have this crazy feeling like no ones life could be any better then mine.

I sincerely hope I do not have to keep going through these lows in order to realize how wonderful life is - but I just want to say, coming out of the fog is amazing.
