happy accidents and attempts to make new things

This year has felt like a time of new things - something to do with small changes to energy levels and something to do with the lengthening days and the sun and its warmth. I have felt as though I am emerging from a hole in the ground at times, not unusual with the starting of spring, but particularly felt with an easing of prolonged periods of more chronicity of chronic illness. I step out of the house blinking wide eyed at the sun, struck again that the world is still there and has happily continued without me. I have this year also experienced something I have described as a kind of ‘stitching myself back into my world’.
