I had an eye appointment this week and got my first prescription for glasses here at 47 years old. I've been using readers for about a year, but I could tell my eyes were working way too hard. More strain, more fatigue, more squinting at things than I'd like to admit. . When the optometrist put the lenses in a frame and handed them to me, I was honestly shocked.I could see. Like REALLY see. . I remember looking around thinking, "Well that's interesting..." because I had no idea how much my vision had changed. It happened so slowly that I never really noticed it. I just adapted. I held things farther away. I blamed being tired. I accepted the eye strain as part of life. . Sound familiar? . Because this is exactly what happens with pain. It starts with a little ache, a little stiffness, a little discomfort that you can still work around. So you do. You keep going. You stay busy. You tell yourself you'll deal with it later because right now isn't a good time. . Then life keeps life-ing. . A year goes by. Five years go by. Ten years go by. And one day you realize you've stopped doing things you love, you're moving differently, you're planning your life around what hurts, and you've accepted things as normal that were never normal in the first place. . That's the sneaky part. The change happens so gradually that most people don't realize how much they've lost until they start getting it back. . I see this all the time with the people I work with. They aren't avoiding dealing with their pain because they don't care. They've simply adapted to it for so long that they forgot what feeling good even felt like. . So here's my Freedom Friday question... What's one thing you've been waiting to get better that has actually gotten worse? . Let's hear it
