DAY 120 -- Seasons of Life We All Have?

It dawned on me that I have been a basket case for quite some time.  My daughter in law who has been married to my second oldest son said that since she has been in the family, I have been struggling with my health.  That has been about 15 years.  UGLY.  Before that I was playing basketball three times a week at 5:30 in the morning.  I was playing softball and also racquetball.    I was quite active.

Then in the 90's, I started having kidney stones.  I had one about every six to eight months for about ten years.  Didn't know why, but they came and they came.  Then one day they stopped.  I have not had one of them for quite some time.  Then my 'roid started bleeding and they have been on their bleeding rampage for the last ten years.  Maybe they will go away just like those little kidney stones went away.  Does a body go from a weakness for one thing into another stage of weakness of another thing? 

I wonder when I get over these bleeding things, will another "blessing" come into my life to teach me about my health?  I would imagine that if I cannot become totally healthy, then as our mission papers go in, the brethren will question, or will have my health dictate what we can and cannot do.

Therefore, it is certainly time to stop blessing pints of blood every day.  Of course I am exaggerating, but it feels like it.

So that is one goal that I have to take care of, so I can exercise again, after all these years and be healthy, able to run marathons, jump small and even large building, and run faster than a speeding bullet, no matter I am over sixty, I am healthy, and will be more healthy in the future, I am sure. It just takes a few blessings from Father.  We have done all we can do, but there are always many different remedies that remain untested.  I guess we can try some other possible remedies until one of the remedies creates another problem or kills me.  Who knows. 

But that is one of the goals I need to continue to follow, getting healthy, showing my daughter in law that I am not as fragile as I have shown her I am.  "Seasons" of life we all go through I surmise.
