Today, there is more to life than surviving. The difficulty lies in finding it.

I don't believe that there are many things one can suffer, that are worse than ME/CFS.
I have learned, though, that no one is devoid of pain in life. The challenge, is in how we deal with it.

I don't always understand my neighbors difficulties, I often think them trivial, but I do understand that they are so very important to them.

And I benefit, greatly, from respecting that.

You are never as alone as you think you are. :)
