The Difference A Year Makes
One year ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
This photo was taken about a week after. My eyes, red and raw from all the tears. My heart filled with so much fear.
I was not sure I was going to be around for Mother’s Day, my Son’s graduation from grade 8 or my eldest graduating high school.
In an instant - CLARITY 🙏
I realized there was so much I wanted to do in my life, and equally.... so much I wanted to NOT do.
I wanted my days filled with things that brought me JOY🌻.
Hearing the birds. Watching the sunrise and sunset. Feeling my kids hugs and just sitting and watching them BE.
Feeling my husbands warm hand in mine.
The ways the trees go from bleak.... to blooming without many even noticing.
Last May... I noticed. Everything. I really noticed what I was missing out on.
I am blessed to be healthy and know in my soul this part of my life was a wake up call.
A blessing.
I am here.
I am here to live into my life filled with things that bring me joy.
I am here to do me. To give less and less f&k’s about what anyone thinks of me or anything I choose to do.
To live into a freedom of knowing I am enough as I am.... and yet, capable of so much more.
More love
More laughter
More adventure
More life ♥️
🙏
Just this breath.
Just this moment
🙏
Sending love back to all who sent so much to me ♥️💗♥️
