Joy amidst the cancer chaos

What's bringing you joy?

Here’s Why I’ve Never Been Happier

Cancer comes in the blink of an eye and totally uproots everything you thought you were and your current identity to self.

It strips away any sense of normalcy and places you directly into a sea of chaos that we call cancer.

It takes away your physical self and the body you have always called home. It eliminates the fake fluff of shaky relationships. It wrestles away the things we thought we loved and replaces them with the true matters of the heart - sunshine, good convos with a loved one, walks around the neighborhood, days of feeling healthy.

Cancer comes in like a thief in the night and in the moment we think it’s the worst burglary of our life.

But overtime we slowly start to appreciate the new life that was forced upon us.

Our gratitude for the small things, are now the biggest things.

Previously, a sunny day was just another day - but now a sunny day holds the highest moment of pleasure and happiness.

As a collective I’m sure we can all agree that cancer has changed us for the better. The small things are no longer small things.

Although my life is still filled with a lot of unknowns and chaos, I truly believe I have never been this happy and grateful for life.

Now I ask you - Have you taken the time to really appreciate this new lease on life? Or are you still asking yourself, why me?

Yes, the shitty days are still just that - but through cancer we have learned that the moments we previously took for granted, are now the biggest blessings we could have ever asked for.

Let the little things fill your cup.
