How quickly do the moments that make up our life pass us by...............
One day we look at our lives in a nostalgic, yet cynical way and believe in the truth of whatever wisdom we shared with others at that moment, just to be brought back (sometimes quite roughly and painful) to the harsh facts of life.
On the 5th of September we celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary, reliving all the good and happy moments, -somehow the not-so-good tend to disappear on days like this- so you know again why your other soul was such a good choice then and your sympathy lies with him because you are generous enough to acknowledge the fact that you know that he could have done better seeing that you are a difficult person to live with for so long.
Then terror stuck.
Yes you know the signs, yet this time around fear encapsulate your mind the same way that the pain grips your heart. Somehow the essence of a heart attack the first time does not appear to be so bad as it does when it happens again a few years later. Then you are scared out of your wits.
OK so now it is five months and two additional stents later and again you survived an MI.....why then does it feel so much as if you were cheated on? Maybe because the cat's surviving lives are one less?
Or maybe just because you know that time is running out?
