Universe

Universe WTF? I know, I know. The Universe. Well, yes that is kind of a big thing, so is a strongly possible life-changer. Earth, is but a proton type member of this universe (tiny). Britain is what in comparison to the Universe isn’t even a proton. A small country really. BUT. There are smaller countries, one of which I have visited once only; well currently anyway. Throughout the last 8ish years, I have read stuff I had previously wouldn’t have my cup of tea. But my life journey hasn’t been ‘as planned’. Some may claim that said reading material is “hippy’ish” or similar, i.e. being of the spiritual variety (and business), and despite that, I am referring to belief in… the power of the attraction!

Well, partially? I have said several times about my life with multiple sclerosis which was never on the plan. However, due to my age and experience with this unwanted guest now, I can reflect back on some of life, with erm, thought! lol In a word; 'confidence'. Is that linked directly to MS? Well it CAN be . And I know that personally. Yet, here's a long-term memory (yikes. 26 years ago (not that long-term!)!) Running. Seriously! As I have a great relationship with MSRRF , a PT I see there to help with MS physicalities made me realise that yes, I do lean backwards; normally . That itself aligns with something even said to me a good few years ago by a friend. I 'had a reason for' that. So I thought. 'Leaning'. My previous blog. I mentioned: "That itself aligns wi
