The recovery is long
I don’t know if it is my age or if major things are just happening in my life. But it seems to me that the recovery period is taking longer for everything than I would anticipate.
Broken heart – forgetabout it – you don’t get over it, you get through it.
Broken marriage – the F remains on your marriage score card for life and I have three Fs thus far – one that really mattered.
Broken foot – the doctor said, we’ll do the surgery on Friday and you’ll have Saturday and Sunday to recover. Right. It’s 5 weeks later and I am allowed to wear my shoe for an hour and still walk with a limp.
Broken dreams – New Orleans is going to need at least five years to recover, maybe 50 years, maybe a lifetime, maybe this is recovery, who knows?
