133, 134, 135........almost....almost.....there


Today is the end of my 45th week, you know what that means? 3 left!!!! I cannot believe how slow the time is passing. I feel like life has stood still during this past year. It has been more of existing, not living. But there is finally an end in sight.
I have learned so much through this fight with Cancer. Even though we think we are in control, over our lives, health and finances. We have no power over our existence. God has total power over everything, He is the creator of all that is known to man. Every thing we see and can dream of.
All and all this Cancer has been a blessing, without facing my own mortality, I would have never discovered what is truly important. I heard a speaker talking about our existence on this earth. He said picture 80 grains of sand - this represents our years on this earth. We strive to make those 80 grains happy, comfortable and prosperous. Without regard to anyone or anything, yet we forget the ocean full of sand that represents the rest of eternity. We need to think about the ocean full of sand rather than the small handful of 80 grains we tend to cherish above all else.
135 down...................9 to go

That is oh so true! (The best things in life aen't thigs) You don't realize what life is about without a few bumps to wake you up and cherish the moment. I have learned a lot this year, which some come from you :-) Don't forget to tell Mike. . .
