I know it’s hard, but sometimes you have to go over the things you used to know, that you haven’t been able to do for some time. Take heart and trust it will come back again.

I sat down at the piano this week, for the first time in two years. You know what I discovered? My fingers had not forgotten all the scales I used to practice when I was in my teens. Before I could get my brain in order, my fingers were already working. So be encouraged, the things you used to do or know can come back. Shut out the naysayer part of your head and believe you can do whatever you set out to do.

After many years looking after her growing family, my mum went back to work as a doctor. She was left in a room to see patients on her first day back! And it all passed without a hitch 

There are some things that we need to accept are not within our power to do anymore. My bike is sitting in the garage, left behind. But now I can cycle a different way. Maybe you can’t imagine starting over with anything, but think again, there might be another way.

As for me, I need to walk away from certain things but, I will head towards the activities I can do. Set your sights on the other ways, or trust in the faithful practice you did in the past. Like playing the piano, it does come back!
