The doctor had some concerns. I see a specialist consultant, I have a chest X-ray, a biopsy. It may be nothing to worry about. I should know within two weeks.
In this meantime I have the choice to focus on my dark uncertainty, or the beauty of light that unfolds outside my window. I can look inward, or outward.
I choose to walk under the great reach of sky before returning to my making.
For a few weeks I have had a sporadic dull ache just to the right of my lower sternum. I have thought it might be indigestion, my fighting off a virus, a muscular or skeletal issue, or perhaps something more concerning. As I can't seem to shift it I seek a doctor's opinion.
Anxiety is the counterweight to contentment. Despite my wish it was not so, unease brings balance.
Dreams: thoughts and the experience of place and possibility.
Dream now this chance between the sheets of day and night.
Dream the world as new,
Find voice and sight:
William Shakespeare
