Lifetime Lesson

4/10/2016

 
Well, the pins have come out.  Hand freedom feels so good! 
Picture
It's such a treat to be able to use both hands again.  It's so instinctive to reach for things with my left hand.  When drawing with my right, I could feel the urge to switch hands and take up the pen with my left.  Now I can.  The drawings below are done with my left, I'd like to keep up drawing with the right.  I made good progress with it.

While I have the use of my left hand again, my lesson in patience continues.  My little finger doesn't like to listen when I tell it to do things.  It doesn't hurt, just stubbornly refuses to obey.  Routine tasks like typing had to be relearned.  It's amazing just how quickly the path between the mind and the hand disappears.  So I continue to try to reconnect them, doing my exercises, and asking it to do familiar tasks.  There is progress, but not as quickly as I'd like.  But that's where the learning lesson comes in.  It doesn't matter what I'd like, it's just going to take time so I might as well relax, accept it, and keep at it.  Sounds like the old concept of hozho.  Maybe this is a lifetime lesson.

At this rate, you'll soon be equally good with both hands. I'm glad Leftie is back!
