COT:
I asked the question about why we wake up every day? A few folks said the alarm clock. By why are we waking up. Are we stumbling through the day checking boxes to just get to the end. Or are we having purpose in our days. Back in August I had a really bad health scare. Chaplains were called in at one point to talk with Adriane. I don’t remember at all from Tuesday through Saturday morning. After a couple of days I told Adriane the thing that worried me the most was I don’t remember telling you I love you before my last surgery. Keep in mind this is when I had no memory. She said I did in my weakest moment. So my underlying cognitive thought was I love you. I also asked Adriane if I was going to die. She responded if you quit doing stupid shit you won’t :joy: :joy: :joy: this year has been shit with the loss of my brother and now this health event. But, I refuse to live in sadness and unhappiness. I’m choosing to live each day with purpose
