Today is my last round of Chemo....
I wrote something on FB I wanted to share here, while I dont know any of you personally, I have a feeling SG is a place where those who have beat trauma and the darkness in the world can come and show beauty and individuality.
So Ill share it and hope it resonates for a few people, maybe make your day better, or inform the choice you make next time you are about to react in less than kind fashion, cause we all do it.
I wish I had the ability to write something that truly made the world better, but I will keep trying with the tools I have.
"Im doing my probably LAST round of Chemotherapy today, and I wanted to say something...
Life for me has been a series of ups and downs, more downs, but they only serve to enhance the beauty and rarity of the ups. I have had so many close calls, more than most people know about, and it has taught me to try and say what I feel about each of you. We live in a world that is on the verge of disaster, and that mirrors my own experience in many ways.
Do you want the last words spoken to those you love and respect to be from anger or misunderstanding? Do you want to be remembered for a moment of selfishness?
Or do you want to take the opportunity when it is there, treat it like the last chance to show the people in your life how much they mean, because it may very well be.
Im very flawed, a complete fuckup to be honest, but I try very hard to be truthful and kind to every person who has helped make life worth living, and for those who have tried to knock me down, thanks, I learned to fall, I learned to roll back up quickly, and I hope my silence is DEAFENING!
Ill save what precious breath I have for the people who matter."
Have a wonderful day, Im getting ready for the last poisonous cure to be pumped into this broken meat sack.
