I am a very fortunate man. This is something I have long known but am just beginning to appreciate. I work seven days a week for W-2 income. My wife does as well. This allows us to meet our obligations. We are able to save just the tiniest fraction of this. Having lost the savings we once had we are climbing out of debt. That mountains summit is in sight.
In between the seventy hours I work each week I am studying a new skill as an apprentice to a master of a high demand service. This will hopefully allow me to transition from one or both of the W-2 incomes. Additionally, a home based business opportunity is showing promise. This blog allows me vent for the healthcare reform I know is God's special gift to me. He led me to the bedsore and showed me its solution. In time my circumstances will be such that I am able to dedicate sufficient time to pressing this point ever more relentlessly, though hollow men and women abound. How can I be sure of this. Let me tell you.
Yesterday, after finishing a 10 hour shift I apprenticed for four hours, then I did four hours of additional W-2 labor, then I had a precious 30 minute visit with my wife and daughter, then I fell into a deep sleep. The entire day was blessed and my steps were graced and I was in a place I have rarely known. I should have been otherwise by the world's reckoning, perhaps even a bit cranky. Only God knows if my tiny insight into the big healthcare problem that is the bedsore will one day matter. I just thank Him for the opportunity He has given me. I am truly blessed.
