whiplash



What a word whiplash is. It slaps you across the face just for uttering it.

I've had my share of neck issues, but this really is too much even though it could have been even worse. I am glad to still be functional for my children, yet I'm in pain as I do. It stems from someone not paying attention enough or not getting off their phone. It's been so hard on us to get into a car wreck. We were just getting settled in, and then this dreadful surprise came along.

Watching for what we can learn or gain from the experience is where I try to take myself when I begin to stress out about everything going on right now. Life is so very up in the air.

Whiplash isn't just about neck pain though. It can be what happens to us when we love someone who isn't ready or who throws away love with two hands. It hurts for real. You are never the same. You are disoriented for a good while. Have I left anything out?

Any which way you find whiplash in your life, I hope you will find comfort. I hope you will heal and be happy. I want those same things.

  1. Whiplash really is a powerful word and concept, isn't it. Hopefully you heal, quickly, from all the kinds of whiplash you might be experiencing right now!

  2. What a fitting analogy, whiplash, those those times when one is shocked by grief or hurt. The pain lingers moving through the person, hurting again when you least expect it. Hope you heal soon.

  3. An interesting dialogue is worth comment. I think that it is best to write more on this matter, it may not be a taboo subject but generally individuals are not enough to speak on such topics. To the next. Cheers real money casino
