Anniversary

Well it's been a full year since the accident. It's also been a full year that my grandfather died. I really did not think about it till my wife reminded me of it. It has been a week of reflection since the reminder. If I don't stay busy I can see the accident happening again and again. Don't interpret this as being depressed because I am not. I just believe in looking at the past and learning from it. This week I have reflected a lot when I should have been doing my homework for college. Oh well. Reflection is good. It has allowed me to deal with the past year. It helps physcologically to help heal. The scars are deep but not as deep as Jesus endured.
I will begin next week to start a rough draft for a book about this past year. I will post it here on my blog. I hope that I will have more followers to the blog so that I can get some people to critique the book. I also hope to start to connect more with others. Especially now that I have been off of pain medication now for over 2 months. My mental capacity has cleared and allowed me to really think.
Help me celebrate the past and what God has done with it and continues to do with me and my family. Celebrate life with me because I am alive. Celebrate that I can walk and move and function.
