Today, I am capable. Today, I walked up and down the hill towards the forest three times, even though I am injured.
My name is Jennifer and I live on the edge of the forest.
Today, I got out of bed, dressed and went out. I nursed my pain yesterday - if I let the pain stop me today, I won't be able to move tomorrow. I ignored the little twinge that says, "Stop. You don't know what's out there. You don't know what wild beast is waiting to tear your world apart." I focused on the front of my mind, I sang to myself, like I always do about this time, and I went out into the world. I bought a hot drink from a merchant and a meal for my husband. I returned my daughter's literature to the one from whom she borrowed it. I procured money to be able to feed my horse and I came home again, through the winding roads to the house on the edge of the forest. A successful morning.
