| Yeah, so... |
The journey of life continues as we sit and wonder what it is we are here for. A wise man tells me we are all connected, through the beauty of physics. He may in fact be onto something. Does that mean it pains you any less to hear that someone you are close to, although expected, has been diagnosed with lung cancer in one form or another? Of course not. It is how you handle the situation that makes you or breaks you. I learned a long time ago that in times of crisis, I am the "go to" person...I am there for my friends, and can easily help them through tough situations. It is what I do best. However, when it comes to something that bothers me, I not only decline all help offered to me, I somehow don't handle it too well at times, which I noticed quite vividly with the death of my father, grandmother, best friend, etc.And so, am I happy about the latest developments with my mom? Hell no, of course not...especially since we share genealogical make up. But, I have learned, through a great woman whom I once admired (a former manager), that it is best to be proactive than reactive...As a great man once told me (yes, the same one mentioned above) there is strength in numbers, thus, to be proactive will help her defeat this insidious enemy even better, and make her even stronger, and hey, there is still time. From what I am told, the chances are good it has been caught in time.And with that, I embrace this latest challenge with eyes wide open and vigilance; strength and determination. It is too important NOT to.Peace...
