Recovery is challenging

So many changes as one struggles

medications, exercises, examinations

too many people, all concerned

then not enough

This piece is a start of something. At the moment it is very rough and unfocused, but it is a start and will improve as I improve from the heart attack and stroke that is the start.

--------------------------------------------------------

Note: This is the beginning of something. I know what the end will be, but not how I will get there, much like the focus in the title. So be patient it will grow as my journey runs its course.

Lately it seems…

Mortality gently knocks

not to remind me that death is coming

Maybe soon, maybe late,

But to remind me to examine

my life, to see if it is worth

remembering, even celebrating.

What happens when...

We give tools used by professionals

to students for use learning?

We guide rather than demand?

And give leave to follow tangents and create?

We take the time to listen?

We respect the views of youth?
