A friend has fallen down some stone steps...receiving two sprained wrists, badly cut legs and bruising. Another friend was in hospital yesterday receiving treatment for cancer. My brother-in-law has severe arthritis...so was unable to play darts last night for his local team. My cat, who due to age is failing to properly groom herself, now has clumps of fur that require her fur to be shaven off in patches. My own hair needs the roots 'doing'...and my latest prescription glasses are stronger than I've needed previously. My husband has a sprained shoulder. If one isn't very careful one might wallow in self-pity or become overly concerned about general decline...
Then again...if each step is seen as a simple challenge to be met...with the held knowledge that there is another step ahead...with any luck we can meet each challenge by stepping up!
