B
I have fibromyalgia, a little-understood disease causing never-ending pain. There's no cure, just pain pills. For 28 years, I soldiered through the pain as best I could. Our three kids kept me going. I had to be there for them.
Then one by one the kids left home for college. Now I was a homemaker with no children to look after. I often collapsed on the sofa and went entire days with no reason to get up.
John, my husband, always advised we take bicycle rides together. “Charlene, the doctor said exercise will help you,” John reminded me. “Why don't we train in the hills nearby? When you get strong, we'll ride across Europe. It'll be like second honeymoon. ” How I wished I could. It sounded so romantic. And impossible. John shook his head and left the room.
One morning I heard John getting ready for another ride. This time he didn't bother asking me to join him. I felt pain consuming me. It was the pain of growing apart from my husband, of losing my sense of who I was. An answer came immediately clear to me. God would pour down his love on me. But I would have to move off this sofa myself. I would have to find a reason to go on. For John and for me. “I want to go riding with you,” I told John when he returned home.
The next morning I rode two miles along a flat bike path with John. Everything seemed so new and wonderful. I even slept better. The next day I did three miles. The day after, four. I started to ride on my own. John suggested a 10-mile ride one day. Off we went. Pretty soon I found a rhythm(节奏). What beautiful country! How could I have ever wanted to stay on that sofa? Yes, I'd been a prisoner, but I'd held the key to my freedom all along. When we arrived at the finish point, John hugged me, tears in his eyes, “You're a real cyclist now,” he said. “What do you say we bicycle across Europe in the fall?”
That September we cycled 900 miles, from the Black Forest to Budapest. “I never thought we'd be this happy again,” said John. “I'm in heaven. ” I leaned over and took his hand.
