"Today, the cataract was removed from my left eye and I'm happy to tell you "ALL IS WELL".   I am most fortunate that Dr. George Corrent, of Bascomb Palmer Eye Institute, did the surgery and on Wednesday, August 28, he will remove the cataract from my right eye.  Isn't it wonderful how old eyes can be so skillfully repaired?  This is one very thankful lady.

I'm still singing this song.  Click on "Has Anyone Ever Told You" and sing along too."

SERENITY
Nothing can disturb the calm peace of my soul.
Like the eye of a storm, the center of my being is a place of peace and quiet. I turn to this inner sanctuary any time I need to go apart from the world. In this sacred space, nothing can disturb the calm peace of my soul.
In moments of prayer and meditation, I focus on the light within me. By gently turning within, I can achieve serenity anywhere, at any time.
I am filled with the love of God. I feel the strength, wisdom, and light of God enfold me and prepare me for what’s ahead. I center myself with a simple inhale and exhale, and I rest in the awareness that God and I are one.
God is my assurance that all is well. I am at peace.

Live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.—2 Corinthians 13:11
