Gassssssy!

Whoah, today has been extremely trying on family, friends, neighbors as I have been a non-stop methane plant all day. Not exactly sure what's going on but I did feel some tenderness under the right shoulder blade so I'm guessing that liver/gall bladder are involved somehow. In any case the gas has been pretty foul-smelling, so despite the unpleasant social aspect, I welcome it as a sign that foulness is finding its way OUT of the body. It's really as bad as it's gotten through this whole ordeal so I'm pretty sure my body is working deeper into the accumulated waste. Or maybe it was just all the prunes I ate yesterday. What a process! Every day is something different, something challenging, something (good OR bad) to remind me I'm alive! And that part of living fully is accepting EVERYTHING that life brings my way...life is great, even when it's not so great! This really does feel like a forging by fire that will temper me into hardened steel, sharp and ready to face challenges head on...
