I Feel Great All the Time! Magic? No, My Neurosurgeon! Dr. Aliabadi!

Hello Fellow Travelers!

Another fantastic side effect of having a large, cancerous growth removed from my noggin is that I feel pretty great all the time.  That's right!  I said, "All the time!" 24 - freaking - 7!  I'm not kidding or exaggerating.  I have every reason not to feel so sunny but I do and it's great!  It keeps me motivated and focused on the monumental challenge in front of me.

I see the world differently since 2011.  I haven't had a glass of wine in years, I never will again, I can't handle it at all, it goes straight to my head.  I don't miss it at all either.  I've figured out a way to bend pain to my will, and I've been medication free for years too.

You know why I feel so good?  Any guesses?  I had a cancerous tumor removed from my brain!  Duh!  Dr. Hamid Aliabadi did an awesome job removing the huge tumor from my fourth ventricle (wherever that is!)
I have no balance and I can't see anything straight but I feel fantastic!  For a long time I didn't know the reason for this amazing sense of "well-being" then my mother pointed the obvious out to me - I grew a nasty brain tumor and had it removed!  That's probably why I felt so bad too! Double duh!  Thanks, Mom!  Thank you, Dr. Aliabadi!

I've discovered a completely new appreciation for desserts and cookies that I have to completely ignore but amuses me nonetheless.  I'm getting stronger and more flexible every day.  I work furiously at the gym and on daily BDMs (Bataan Death Marches) but I'm never furious.  I'm rarely ever more than irritated.  So, thank you, Dr. Aliabadi!  You saved my life!

So between the advent of high-definition television and my "Incredible Lightness of Being" (in my head, anyway) I've been trying to wrap my brain around the concepts presented on the new Cosmos.  The main message in the first episode seemed to be that the Universe was much bigger and older than scientists had originally thought, like lots bigger and is expanding infinitely.

I had always thought there were two hostile and totally separated schools of thought; the Christians vs. Science and if you believed in one, you couldn't believe in the other.  At the risk of sounding a little Kumbaya, why not?

If the Universe is huge, old and ever expanding there is room for science and faith.  Having a belief in both is possible!  Believing in one doesn't mean you're superior or stupid, there's plenty of room out there for everyone!

If a superior being does, in fact, exist, why wouldn't it be present in every molecule of the Universe? I'd venture to say it would be!  "God" in fact, does care about Christian Singles and every other subspecies at every level because "God is everywhere and in everything".
