Hi! Brand new here, havong come from Sari's Oldster newsletter. I like what I see.
Had you asked me fifteen years ago if I would be satisfied with a life of service whose salient characteristic is reasonable contentedness, I would likely have pummeled you with profanity and maybe blows (depending on state of resting rage).
As an adherent of the program of recovery outlined in an 84-year-old book, I can say that I live the grateful life of a survivor. This affliction has killed just about everyone who's ever directly suffered from it, and more than a few of their miserable loved ones. I am living proof that even the most intractable of us can get well and stay well. The design for living certainly works for me, and as long as I keep at it I know it will.
My life has its ups and downs, but my response to it has become a joy.
