All you have to do is stick around
…oh yes, and there is a video too.
Remembering the Future is Great, but manifesting that future is a lot more fun.
For two years I have been focused on healing my body more than any other time in my life. While those efforts must continue, it is time for me to expand my vision.
Why am I telling you this?
Great Question!
First of all, it may be time for you to give me the ‘heave ho’ and head out on your own merry way…or…it could be that my new journey may inspire you to “sail out past your past” and be more “present minded.” So, stick around if you wish.
Remember, you have to be present to win!
What does this look like?
The simple obvious: A happier, healthier day that is attainable and shareable.
How do I do this?
It is a path of discovery. One breath at a time, one hour at a time.
As a team and as an individual doing attitudinal healing inner work and worldly work using the tools and means that work for me — while others apply that which works for them.
I see this happening at three levels:
• health tips and tricks
• philosophical humor to uplift my mind and relationships
• spiritual issues that connect fellowship with deep inner self-transformation
For me, the ‘old reliable’ isn’t so reliable anymore. The status quo has changed and what got me here will no longer get me there (to my new future).I wish I had started living my Bucket List before I started feeling pail.
Many of my behaviors, activities, travel plans, etc, may no longer be physically possible for me anymore. So, I work with what I’ve got and build from there.
Life is a contact sport.
How do we stay in contact (if you wish to do so)?
I love the web-site [ https://blairlewis.com/ ]. Many of you helped fund its creation and I am forever grateful. The applications and software we purchased were all bought with a 12-month contract. Thus, in a few months the website will go away. At that point, email will be my only option unless other possibilities arise.
Therefore, I want to make everything I share to be downloadable for you to keep as your own possession. We can figure this out when it is time to cross that bridge.
What is there to share?
Tips and Tricks: I hope to post all that has helped me manage my health care. Terri and I have discovered so many, many things that made my cancer and cardiac journey less painful and much less traumatic. Of course, I will post what worked as well as things that did not work so well. I had hoped to start postings these things last summer, but I became too ill to accomplish that.
Journal Postings: Humor, philosophy, making tough decisions, etc. These personal insights are inspiring. Nothing tragic, but there is some magic.
Media Files: Audios and videos of classes I have taught over the last 20+ years that you can download if so inspired.
Tips and Tricks will be an ongoing effort. We will do our best to pull together these life lessons that all patients and caregivers should know and share about healing and the medical systems both modern and ancient.
One more point about contact…it is mainly a one-way street.
It is not a secret. My main focus is on getting well. That won’t change.
Abraham Lincoln said, “you cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.”
I am a patient working on getting stronger every day.
While I read and listen to everything you send me, I rarely reply to you directly. I do not have the time and strength to do that, and I definitely do NOT offer any medical advice.
The website and my journal postings are like a library book. The author says what they say. It is a one-way form of communication, but it can still be helpful.
I still crave community and fellowship. The temptation for us to gather online via Zoom, does still arise in my mind and heart occasionally. Hmmm.
Audio and Video options may be activated
Depending on my vitality, I may occasionally need to reach out to you via audios or videos when typing is not an option for me. Thus, I may be experimenting with delivery methods for these media formats.

Fear is selfish.
Courage is selfless.
PS: Hearing folks loved the PDF talking about the ‘story concept’ of communication. Here is the video of that class, called Wounds and Worries.
It begins with… “There is a secret. No one ever told you. You are born in the middle of a story – your story. Sharing stories helps us learn how to navigate the reality within us and around us.”
Here is the video of that class. Enjoy!
