✧Field Notes✧
I laid in bed, typing my thoughts and feelings into my phone. I had been bedridden for a few months now, totally taken out by my chronic pain. Still, that didn't stop me from expressing what I was learning and feeling.
The most fascinating thing about living with chronic pain is that my body forced me to look at time and resources differently.
The resources I had taken for granted for so long--my strength, my energy, my range of movement--were limited so much that I had to quickly learn how to make the best use of what I already had.
Although I'm no longer bedridden, I still suffer from chronic pain. And the lessons from this phase of my life still stick with me:
Make the best use of what you have right now.
Even if it's just time for a few deep breaths.
Or clean one thing.
Or tell someone that you love them.
Five minutes can be enough. My limits can still be enough.
