There was a big electrical storm this evening. Bolts of lightening flashed between clouds for hours. As I have spent most of my time indoors over the last two weeks, to witness this weather event, even from the flat window, was exhilarating. My recovery from the surgery has been uneven, and absolutely nonlinear. I have moments of pure joy, such as when I swear I can feel lighter after the removal of the myoma, cysts and endometriosis. Or, earlier today when I woke from a nap feeling completely peaceful, my body rested, my mind loose and still. But by the afternoon, I felt down again, missing physical exercise and social contact. I know that I need to ride out this turbulence. Or rather ride with it. NOTE: I received this image only after the storm had passed and the stars were out.
