In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree — Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Xanadu is a mystical magical place where anything and everything can happen.  Where is Xanadu?  Well I guess the question should really be when is NOW Xanadu?

I woke up this morning and life was still breathing within this body of mine, and what a blessing bestowed upon me, because yet again I get another opportunity to create the reality and life of my dreams.  Another opportunity to not only find my calling, but to live my life’s purpose.  This is Xanadu.  NOW is Xanadu.  If you’re waiting for some reward on another plane whether it is spiritual or physical, then you are missing out on the one you have chosen to manifest your physical form in this very day.  For me I choose from here on out to live my life as an experiment.  I’m strapping on the lab coat, pulling out the bunson burner and I’m going to test the boundaries of this physical plane and live life to its fullest extent.  That is why we have chosen to be here.

 

This morning I am grateful for the source energy that moves to and through me, creating this world around me as I choose it to be.

The future is called “perhaps,” which is the only possible thing to call the future.  And the only important thing is not to allow that to scare you. ~Tennessee Williams, Orpheus Descending, 1957

Over the past couple of months I have devoted most of my free time to take care of some existing health problems, only to see new ones arise.  I am currently recovering from surgery I had not even two weeks ago, and I am healing fine.  My strength and endurance increase each day.

A few weeks before my surgery, I was told by my urologists that my PSA test results which scan for possible prostate cancer came back high.  For  a man my age, the high range should be no more than 2.5 and my PSA score came back at a whopping 8.5.  They then put me on some antibiotics to rule out the possibility that an infection I had was causing a false positive and then retested me the day before my surgery.  Today I got the results back, and they were not what I was hoping for. My PSA score did drop from an 8.5 to a 2.7, however the Free PSA test score which should be 25% or higher came back at a 6.7%, which anytime the number is 7% or below, indicates a very likely chance of your having prostate cancer.  The next step is another test, and then biopsy.

So what am I grateful for in light of all of this?  I am grateful that every day I wake up I am surrounded by those who love, care and and have respect for me.  I am grateful to be back to work.  I am grateful that my health continues to get better and better each and every day.  I am grateful that I continue to learn and grow spiritually and financially.  I am grateful for every morning I wake up on this side of the dirt and I get another chance to play this game called life.  Yes I am still grateful, I am extremely grateful, even though I have not put it out in my blog.  I live a very blessed life, and no one knows that better than me.
