Of course, I myself am conductor and passenger and engineer as well as both journey and destination and finally I was able to accept that these days of illness would pass. But I do not have a chronic condition as you do and that makes everything so much harder for you.<br /><br />Right now it's my spirit that needs a dust off as I struggle with talking the talk about writing but not walking the walk.
