So, I've had pain in my knee. Pain that keeps me from doing the things I love, like dancing and hiking. It's been dogging me since about November. I've done PT for it - but the day after doing something I love, it's always worse for a few days.
Looking inside, my question was: am I supposed to step away from activities that I truly love? (I love how even this thought reflects a need to MOVE. I tend to be movement-oriented.)
Sometimes things are revealed in a sudden flash of insight: I was blessed by such a flash this morning. It's because my businesses haven't been thriving - and I've had this soul crushing feeling of "I can't go on." I have been on the verge of giving up. Because I love these businesses (both of them, in different ways), it was infringing on other things I love (dance, hike, physical movement).
My flash was: the knee was a physical reflection of my psychological state. And the truth is, I can indeed, and will indeed, go on. The businesses may have to change a bit, my hiking, walking and dancing may have to change a bit, but I can and WILL continue to do the things I love to do.
Got it? My knee almost immediately felt better, even. Although the PT will continue to be needed, it won't interfere if I can help it, at all.
Be well, be blissful. I hope you can all have a flash of insight today, and reveal where and how your own pain is coming from. And now, I need to go move!
Sincerely, Tomboy Vicki
