Hi SuperForest!
I have been silent for a while, but I was with You all the time :)
It has been over three months since my accident and I am still in the recovery process. Hmm, I won’t lie, it is a very challenging time, with many ups and downs. I can walk :) yet being in a plaster for so long ( 3 months ) made my spine muscles very, very week. Thus, it hurts more than before. Yet, there are a few things that always make me smile – and music is one of them.
Today a friend of mine send me a link to this amazing video:
This is a new song from SuperForester Jason “SanDiscoReggaeFornia”. It verbally overflowed me with so much positive energy. Listening to the tunes and watching those two happy people on the stage dancing wild with Jason (I really love the way they dance!) made me forget about my spine problems. In fact, I had to remind myself about it, as my feet and body started to move unconsciously!
As I really can’t live without music and dancing, for the time being I am dancing with my hands - as Jason once said ” don’t let your mind stop you from having a good time” !
This is something that I have been learning so much recently. Living on my own I am facing everyday physical limitations, especially because I can’t bend. Yet I tell myself to be strong and not to despair as I have so many things to be grateful for! I am very very lucky.
Life is good. Life is wonderful.
I know I am becoming a different person now. I am braver, ready to fight for my dreams and desires. I finally start to understand it- there is no sense in waiting for something . Getting to this point wouldn’t have been possible without the support of my family, my friends and MUSIC.
I know, I talk about it a lot, because it really is something so important and intimate to me. I especially love the music and words of Jason Mraz. I remember when I heard him for the first time on Polish radio ( it was a cover of Bob Dylan’s ”Man Gave Names to all the Animals” ) I knew I would like his music a lot, and my instincts were so right.
I am blessed by the power of the Internet (as are we all!), and it’s how I got to know YOU SuperForest as well as the amazing Blend Apparel community, and the magical music of Bushwalla, the Makepeace Brothers, Brett Dennen, Two Spot Gobi, Jesse Payo, Dawn Mitschele, Alysse Fischer, Tristan Prettyman, Dave Matthews Band and many more!
I am grateful for your music (I wish I could say thank you to each of you in person). You are healing my body and soul, making me smile! The music is an important part of my recovery process and this means a lot to me. It helps me to endure the physical rehab (though the real rehabilitation process will begin in a few more months).
Life is good…
All the things that happen are continuously shaping me to become a newer, wiser and better (more loving) version of me.
I have promised myself that someday I will be dancing at Jason Mraz concert!
United in music,
Namaste, Ewa.
