Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

I am living with uncertainty, and it is disorienting.  Luckily, I know nothing is ever certain anyway, and plans dissolve in an instant.  We only have the illusion of control.  Our daughter's health has been a lesson in the roller coaster ride of life.  She's brave and determined and surrounded by friends who love her and help all they can.  Her family is praying and searching for treatments and ready to do whatever on a moment's notice.  We're all stressed and trying to balance our concern with staying in the moment and not projecting.  It's hard.  She is amazing:  clear sighted, able to ask for what she needs, and hopeful.  That is the blessing:  being a witness to her love of her life, her ability to enjoy whatever she can, and nurture herself and her daughter.
