How on earth do you have time to read all these comments?

#1 My first thought/feeling on or about anything or, especially, anyone. I believe my first, split second, notion about anything I have just encountered is the truth. It hasn't been affected by logic, words, or my neuroses. After a few seconds, this is no longer true, so I try to register that first, fleeting thought. If I can do this, I am never wrong. It's not always possible. I'm getting better at it.

#2 My son, who is completely dependent on me for all his needs. This can seem like a burden at times, but, in truth, I have become a more compassionate, less self-centered person. I needed this. He is a being of light. I am very lucky.

#3 My ability to see options! I may be "trapped" in my home caring for an invalid, but my mind is free to wander, to write, to learn, to imagine, to dream, to grow. Hive, for instance, is an enormous opportunity to travel the universe.
