Healing after a fall
Many of the best lessons come to us in unexpected ways and mean the most when they lead to healing. One such healing happened after my daughter and her family visited me from out of state to see my new home.
During a lovely warm day in October, we took a walk from where we’d eaten lunch back to my apartment. As we walked across a rocky path, I suddenly fell, landing on my right side and scratching my face in several places. My daughter helped me up, and although I felt hurt all over, nothing seemed to be broken or seriously injured.
We went home, and my daughter helped me clean my face and apply bandages to the cuts. My daughter kept asking me if I was all right, and I assured her I was. After several hours of visiting, we all hugged each other, said our good-byes, and off she and the family went on their journey back home.
