Fatherhood
I USED to think that my title of father defined me and my life fairly well!
Then? The world crashed in like an evil wave! First I suffered a massive stroke, taking me away from my wife and children for six long months. Returning home unable to walk any longer life became a litany of dependencies upon my family for even the smallest of actions. All three of my kids had to see me wallowing, unable to so much as sit up in bed under my own power. Then months and months more work struggling to learn to move and walk for myself once again...all while having lost all means of supporting our family. Now? My elder two kids are legally adults, and though still under my roof, basically beyond my control or influence. The youngest is here under state and county imposed ”house arrest” due to this Chinese bioweapon attack and overly restrictive rules and orders locking us down away from the world! I'm at my lowest point mentally since I started my mindfulness practice with Aura a few years ago, having found myself feeling suicidal over my situation. Lately, I've moved away from mindfulness, but realized this morning I NEEDED to return to the habit! This new Aura interface is pretty and all, but the mechanics of it are odd. I listened to a couple of sessions, but wasn't offered to reflect upon either in the usual fashion. Does Aura not do this any longer? Or is it a glitch I've run in too?
