Saturday, July 15,2017. What a gorgeous day! Been excited about the Ajax/Shimer Reunion. Am going to see people from my childhood. How invigorating is that? Today I no longer feel like a “stranger in a strange land”.This is my 3rd reunion since my diagnosis. My gratitude for this fact is unbounded. Although I’m living with this onerous disease, my life is great! The knowledge of God in my life makes me content. Two years and I’m still here battling for my life. I’m now at a point of being able to talk freely about my diagnosis. Seeing people from my past, some whom I’ve forgotten, are here. Familiar faces evoke forgotten memories. My cousin and my brother are here. Some of my greatest opponents on the court are also here. We talk about the past and those special times of our former athletic prowess. The points scored and the way they were scored may be a little on the subjective side, but it’s all in fun. Now that I’m able to talk about my diagnosis freely I live life easier now. I just want to acknowledge the fact that my faith has set me free. Being diagnosed with cancer has actually been a blessing in disguise for me. Because now, every day is a gorgeous blessing for me. Each and every one of us can choose to really live and enjoy life! Do not wait. Personally, I have no time to wait anymore. We all will face infinity one day and I’m on the precipice. Knowledge of this gives me strength through my faith. So acknowledge the fact that we are mortal beings and that eventually are bodies will wear out. Our spirits will not! Peace and blessings!
