Each Day Already is a Challenge
A Texas Sunrise

Sunrise on Surfside Beach, Texas

A friend, William Taylor, took this picture. He visits Surfside Beach with his dogs almost every morning, watching the sun rise while the dogs prance about at the water's edge.

This is only about ten miles from where I lived in Lake Jackson, Texas. Sadly, I only visited this beach about four times in the six years I lived nearby.




Each day is a challenge. A challenge to get by without thinking about the fibromyalgia pains. A challenge to stay awake when chronic fatigure wants to take over. And a challenge to navigate through fibro fog.

I haven't been writing as much as in the past. For years, I wrote at least 500 words a day. Now, I'm lucky if I write 500 words in month. Sigh.

For more information about what my day (or life) is all about with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, chronic pains, IBS, depression and everything else thrown in, check this out:

It's a New Day Open in new Window. (E)
My pain and welcome to it.

My cousin, the psychologist turned truck driver, said something that struck a chord with me yesterday. He said the problem with friends (and he added spouses and lovers to the mix) is that they learn your interests but not your passions. They learn and know your interests, but don't know really know your political views or the depth of your faith. They learn your superficial desires, but not what's really in your heart.

I think Edward may just have something there. In today's busy world, we probably don't take the time to get to know the insides of our friends. (Heck, we may not want to know the turmoil that goes on there!) We should, though, if we're trying to be more like Christ. The Bible tells us that God knows our heart.
