A bit of humor assists with healing
This year I am particularly grateful for how all my needs have been met, and for the mental stamina and courage that Christian Science has given me. It is a solid foundation, and Christian Science Primary class instruction was the best tool that anyone could have ever given me.
Earlier in the year, my husband noticed in our local paper that an air show would be taking place near home one Sunday. Naturally, as we enjoy planes, we decided to go. The warm day progressed, and I decided to look for something to quench our thirst. I had to walk about a kilometer along the crowded tarmac. On the way, I was tempted by a biscuit stand, so I bought a few.
Coming out of the canteen with some water, I failed to notice the close proximity of an F86 Saber plane in my path. I looked up from my biscuit bag just in time to bash my forehead on the sharp edge of the plane’s wingtip. I was floored, and the incident seemed to have “knocked my lights out.”
