Today was a special day for me because God sent me so many reminders to stay positive! I have been struggling with negativity creeping onto my path. There are people and things that have keep coming at me with such negativity for one reason or another and I have begun to let them effect me. Keith gave me great advice: do not let those people or things have the power because you can kick them off the path by ignoring them and not giving them the power. It is not easy for me but I am working on this! When I am positive and surrounded by positiveness I feel like I am floating and can conquer anything!!!
On a quick trip to Target today I was approached by a lovely lady who asked me how I was today. I thought she was just a nice cashier who was doing her job... but I found out that she knew exactly what I was going through because she had been diagnosed with Stage 3 Breast cancer 18 months ago. The first thing I noticed was that she had beautiful hair that was her own. At the same time I saw in her eyes that she really did understand! She shared with me her story as well as encouraged me to keep on fighting and I will be just as strong when I am 18 months out. She is an angel God sent to be on my path to give me a boost I was so in need of!
Getting together with family and friends this week is so important for me! I am finding so much strength as I chat with different people and they encourage me on this journey. This is a week I am using to recharge my batteries and enjoy life!
