Last night, I was enjoying conversation with my husband and he was making me laugh. I so love to laugh and there are times when I don't have a funny bone, so when I do, I cherish the laughter that much more. I was laughing so hard that my stomach hurt. That's a pain I can deal with :) It's also a pain that makes sense to me. Then my cheeks started to hurt from the large smile that was created while the laughter burst from within. Again, this is understandable and welcome discomfort. All of a sudden, the pain in my cheeks increased and my facial muscles froze. Both cheek bone muscles were tight, super-balls sitting just under my eyes. As I realized what was happening, I began to laugh harder and the muscle under my eyebrow joined in on the tense fun. I was laughing and trying to explain to Ray what was happening. It's not easy to laugh and talk, but try to laugh and talk with a frozen face. I realized that I wouldn't be able to release the tension in my face until I relaxed every muscle, so I needed to stop laughing to stop the biting charlie horses. There has been some question about whether or not my body is experiencing type of Parkinson's Disease. After this last symptom, I think it's time to see my neurologist again. I'm glad that the sign urging me to make that appointment was through laughter and not something devastating. This confirms that the Universe is conspiring for my good and sending me signs to redirect me when needed. When I'm in tune and aware enough to see the signs, even the most enjoyable moments have their hidden messages. I don't have to wait for the cosmic 2 x 4 up side the head to make an adjustment in my life.
I guess when my mother said to not make that face because it'll stay that way, she wasn't kidding :-D
