he and i are in a fight.
i emailed him (like kaiser suggests) on sunday night to ask what are the criteria for me to begin the pumping up process. when i talked with him a few weeks ago about the pain i was still having, he had said that maybe the appointment for the pump up was too soon. since i'm still in pain now...i have a feeling he's not going to be able to pump me up.
so here we are...the night before my 10am appointment and he still hasn't emailed me back. which is frustrating. but it's just more frustrating tonight because if he had emailed me back saying he thought we should postpone it...i could have made an appointment with a mom i work with who's 10-year old daughter was just diagnosed with lymphoma. and i would love to be able to be there for her.
come ON, dr. simonds...
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
-Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi 1207-1273, written in 1230
