Both of my parents died from cancer. Believe me it’s experiences that defy explanation. Someone said to me recently you must stay up at night worried because you might have a higher propensity to get the disease. I shrugged and said no, that’s what would cause the cancer. The stress is what would trigger the cancer if I allow it. Why worry when most of it won’t happen anyway. I guess it’s human nature to fret when it’s not necessary. If I sat ruminating on what could happen I would never live my life at all as everything would be focused on worrying that I might get sick. That makes no sense for me. That’s not how my parents behaved and so that’s not what I would do.
This time of the year is always a bit subdued because it’s cancer awareness month and when the parents died. My dad in October and mom in December. When I look back at their lives it’s remarkable how they handled whatever was thrown at them. They both would live their lives to the max because as they always said to me in so many ways life is for living. Don’t sit worrying about what might happen because there is not a great probability it will. I’m not saying that you can put your head in the sand like an ostrich and pretend that life goes in as normal. That’s stupid. It just means that you pivot as life throw items at you. As the saying goes, make lemonade when life gives you lemons.
The ability to take life a day at a time and be very realistic in how we handle what is given to us is a gift. Not everyone sees that there is more to life than working. I work because I need to not because I want to 🙂. My main purpose now is to figure out how to get off the golden handcuffs and gain freedom. Do you think it’s too late? How can I make the change without giving up all?
