World Cancer Day - this is marked annually as a worldwide event on the 4th
February.
I never knew that it existed before this year. The day, I
mean, not cancer.
I’m sure we are all aware of cancer and people it has
affected, people it is affecting right now. I know of cancer survivors. I also
know of those who have not survived against the illness or who are currently
undergoing treatment. Cancer makes me sad beyond expression.
All illness, especially cancer – because of its aggressive
nature against the body, reminds me that we have to really delight in life
right now. We have to enjoy the moments that we have and fill them with
pleasure because tomorrow is not promised to us.
Sorry if that’s too heavy for you right now, but it’s real.
There are things that we can do to prevent some illnesses
and if we can stop cancer in our bodies then I think we should. I will do my
best for myself and my beloved child, I hope you will do your best for you
and yours.
I may already know you, but if I don’t that doesn’t mean
that I don’t care about you – I do. I want everyone of us to live the best life
possible, in the best health possible. As Lance Armstrong says, Live Strong.

Amazing, inspiring, life-changing.
Shared because I care.
