Chances are likely that I will be happy and okay with my life as it is here now. I just need to take chances for things I love as needed in my life. Will those chances pan-out and come to be what I hope they are?

Maybe, but that chance to be happy and have what and who I need around me is worth it. COVID, travel, and international criminals are real risks. Yes, but chances of them targeting me are slim as I see it. My disability could make me a target, but also could make me that person no one wants to see hurt.

Seeing someone with an obvious issue can mean that people will notice if they witness an issue occur with them. The good graces of complete strangers are nothing to rely on, yet they can at least help when and if bad things happen to us. It affects all of us when mental or physical health’s declines.

As the mind is nothing without the body and body without the mind. My failing pancreas, kidneys, and bladder take its toll on my mind daily.

I dream, hope, and pray for a better state of my mental and physical health soon.
