My body may be giving way, but my Spirit does not have to follow it down the Rabbit Hole into despair.

Do you believe that your thoughts create your reality? That what you think about you bring about? While what you think does have significance, I believe that there is more to the story.

When diagnosed with an illness, one might easily pray for the miracle in the form of a cure. If all I focused on was this miracle, I might have missed out on all the daily miracles in my life.

Knowing that "Life can change in the blink of an eye", can you learn to appreciate those days when you are overwhelmed and overtired? Just because you still have life? 

What it feels like to face mortality when it staring you right in the face? 

This is a reflection on Robert Ohotto's question, "Can you accept life on Life's terms?"

If life is a journey, what kind of journey are you on? 

"What would you do if you only had 15 minutes to live?" It wasn't the question from Dr. Bernie Siegel, but rather my answer that started the neurosynaptic reflection process. I wondered, "What is it about joy or lack of joy, that affects a person's overall well-being?"

Many people were as surprised about me being diagnosed with cancer as I was. Perhaps it was because if it could happen to me, it could happen to them. That was how I felt by the death of Laura Harris. She was just fifty-three (my age now). She was active and outgoing. It was her death almost 12 years ago, that taught me not to wait to live life. She also taught me to swim better, helping me to make it through the 1.5 km half-ironman swim. How does someone not take cancer personally, when it has so much potential to lead to death?
