Life
If you’re not living; You’re just waiting to die. I’m often forced to re-evaluate what life is all about.
I used to think life would be about having my own family, my ideal picture more recently being a husband and cat and dog. A mortgage (likely) a career, a business of some sort and enough freedom to afford a holiday to foreign shores every now and again.
Since my diagnosis and then my disability, some of these things have faded from being possibilities or a reality?
In many ways, I do feel like I’m just passing time and I’m not sure what life is meant to be about, in the big scheme of things. I’m still trying to make a difference every day with the little things I do and the everyday interactions, but right now I’m wondering what I should be doing differently so I’m not found months or years after I pass away, unnoticed by the world in my armchair as an old lady surrounded by 20 hungry cats…
Grief does that to a person. There is a dog or cat out there who needs love, and you need someone to love again.

Cat. It’s definitely a cat. Then, if he’s lucky a husband! Then a dog for the cat!

Helen, I think you think too much about how you think you are perceived, but I still think you conjure the cutest images of yourself, as quoted here.
