I am disabled (spinal cord injury) and having recovered enough to write, this has become my therapy in that it helps me to keep my sanity.
Writing poetry is the best way of self evaluation that I have found, living on disability doesn't give a person the finances to receive the help that is needed.
The social network that I have developed through Google + has helped me to find a better way to recovery than I could have found in any other way. I live alone with my 3 dogs and they show me all the love that I could ever want.
I have no regrets and to me, life is a road that presents many paths to each persons way of understanding our existence. To keep things simple is the way to less stress giving one a return that can only be measured by happiness.
Mankind gets too serious and loses the child within, once that happens; the joy of life is diminished. There are many false teachings that we, as individuals have grown accustomed to as being the truth.
Like money for example, many think you cannot live without money. This is false and enslaves us in such a way that we get caught up in materialistic ways of thinking.
