Choice…

I, Cancer!

(a cancer perspective)

I am diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and mantle cell lymphoma! Sometimes I feel like I can’t breathe, but it’s the disease that causes this. Being that this disease is deadly, I did not choose it nor did I want it! My knowledge of life’s evanescence is sharpening daily because of this. Although I assume all responsibility for my actions leading towards said diagnosis, I did not prevaricate want to be diagnosed with either! What I am saying is that although I have no choice in my diagnosis, at least I can choose to fight it! Choice! A God given gift! But what happens when your choice is taken away? Ask George Floyd or Eric Garner about their choices! There are countless others but let’s take these 2 men for example. The choices they made put them in position for OTHERS to choose for them! The OTHERS that were paid to “serve and protect!” Wow! And what “they” chose was to kill them without remorse! This was supposedly the greatest country on earth at one time. Never that, not now, not EVER! This country was built on the tenets of racial divide! And when you have a political party that denies a January 6 investigation something is wrong! When so many believe an obvious lie, something is wrong! I don’t talk politics but something is wrong with this country, this world… this, this place! Sometimes I really wish Scotty could “beam me up!” so I can get off this rock! Be that as it may, my main concern is in life right now is my health! I have actually attained peace in this topsy turvy place! All because of a gift called cancer! Keep faith in Him! You’ll be fine!

Peace and blessings!
