The last two weeks vanished as in a blur, and I thank God for that. Many of the days were very unpleasant and emotionally draining. Yet, as stated through many blog posts, time does pass, and challenge and pain moves, eventually, with it.
Today, it appears that the critical portion of the recent crisis has past, which means that healing and health will return, day by day by day by day. Traveling through days filled with crisis and land minds, a GPS might prove to be a helpful tool.
Recalculating, recalculating.... it retorts as direction changes once again. When life throws a horrible curve in the form of a car crash, a fire, an unexpected illness, involving those in our lives who are so deeply loved - immediate emotions could bounce from horror, fright, to fear and concern, to dismay, perhaps back to fear, and finally to knowledge and understanding.
Each time recalculating, recalculating................
When I had that thought to recalculate - it also gave me a few minutes to think - how to get grounded again. It created a breath - which created another breath, which created another. The reality that when you think you have the situation or an event understood, are prepared and ready, it will be just the time when things will recalculate.
During the past two weeks, without being fully aware, my steps and movements were recalculating many times via autopilot. Now that healing is more likely, I took a deep yoga breath and will now remove myself from autopilot, and begin to be cognizant of the direction of my movements, goals and focus.
I was grateful for all the lessons I have learned. Autopilot was fairly capable, yet very relieved that I can now turn it off-- life will be better. Life is about recalculating, readjusting, and maneuvering through land minds, and lots and lots of praise and prayer to God.

Susan----Debra of Henrietta NY---Wow I can appreciate that as my mind has been spinning and spinning. My daughter who is 7 months pregnant fell down there basement steps about a week ago. My heart was in my mouth not knowing if she or the baby was ok.
Being in the waiting room my mind kept racing. Like you mentioned recalculate and flip the switch that both of them will be ok and at that moment i felt a calm come over me and I started to pray.
It was very scary not knowing from min to min yet through the power of God all things are possible.
Both mother and baby are doing ok.
Thank you for sharing and hope all is going to be ok.
Love the way you put this. Thank you for putting my mind at ease and through your words have provided comfort. Hope our words can provide you comfort as well.

Susan ----William of NY--Love your post on recalculating as our 6yr old boy fell and broke his leg ice skating and it's at that moment you don't know what to do. It's the uncomfortable before the comfortable can regain back.
With everybody surrounding our son and the Ambulance came to take him to the hospital and thinking and praying that our boy would be ok. He is in a cast and our son will be ok.
Taking moments to recalculate and regroup helps to get your bearings which in turn brings calmness.
Hope all is going well with you my family and I have been readers over 2 yrs.
What can we say other than fantastic job by your photographer we love this picture. It's the darkness as Jesus light shines through. Let us know if there's a place where the pictures are being shown.
