This place I call my journal has been calling me for the last week. It seems that I am writing here less and less.
Since my last entry so many events have happened. The most interesting is I was offered a job, something that I haven't done for the last five years because of CFS. I found here I chose actually to take the job, an easy choice of working in air-conditioning or being subject to constant power outages here (three in the last week). I know that electricity is very much a luxury, however when the temperature is well above 40c every day, I give thanks and gratitude that we live in a developed country.
The fatigue is intermittent and reminds me often to pace. I must say that working is definitely something I felt was behind me, so for now I'll monitor my energy level and choose appropriately. After five years I feel perhaps I'm one of the more fortunate with CFS, so for now I'm enjoying the company of others and eventually the income addtion to lighten the load of our expenditure.
My compassion and Love go out to All who read this. My hope is that in some way it adds hope to All with Chronic Illness.
In Love.

Your journal and especially your photos are beautiful! I have been suffering with CFS for about 23 years. I sympathize with what you are going through, and I wish you well. There are a lot of people going through similar experiences. If you want to hear how some of us are doing, you might want to check out the Phoenix Rising forum at http://forums.aboutmecfs.org/
Thank you for sharing your experience and your beautiful words and photos.
