A beautiful story with a simple, yet important message. I hope as many people as possible give it a read. I know, I am happy I read it, as it gave me a few things to think about in my own life. Sometimes it is the simplest of stories that make us ponder the most.

This was a very timely post with the way things are in this world right now. We could sit around and concentrate on the bad and miss all the good! As I enter the later yrs. of my life I try everyday to enjoy all the good people and things in my life. I had to retire early because of a heart condition,but was very fortunate to have a retirement plan that will let me enjoy what yrs.I have left. I hope everyone takes this to heart and tries to enjoy all the days of their lives,because they are numbered!
Thanks for posting this
Thanks for posting David357. I have made it a priority to focus on the white and ignore the black dot to tay positive as I dealt with my cancer the past 2 1/2 years. Many ups and downs over that time but as I went to appointments at Mayo (Rochester, MN) and Roger Maris Cancer Center (Fargo, ND) I found myself realizing how good I had it as I observed what others were having to deal with. I've had five different series of regular chemo treatments and two chemo trial series. The last I was kicked off of as of yesterday when my PET Scan results showed more growth again. Once my blood counts come back up we will be starting a new series. I just take it one day at a time and feel that being positive is a great way to help fight it.
Yesterday again, while at Mayo, I was reminded that my problems are not so big as I observed another cancer patient that had appointments at nearly the same times as I did. A young family was in front of me and the young mother was checking in for a PET Scan. Her husband was pushing her in a wheel chair and their approximately 3 year old daughter was riding on mommy's lap. When the staff member took her back for her test the little girl cried a bit in her daddy's arms and he was reassuring her that everything would be OK.
I couldn't help but think about how challenging it had to be for both mother and father as they dealt with this health issue and at such a young age. Last night I found myself say special prayers for that young family as they dealt with such a cruel disease.
What a great way to get you to think about life and little differently. I have been trying to change my way of thinking after having my heart attack almost a year ago. At 46 yrs old that was a real eye opener on how fast things can change. I've come to appreciate every day a little more and thank God for every day I get to spend with family and friends that I used to take for granted. God bless all of you during your struggles and keep the faith.....God is Great and through him all things are possible.
Never ride faster than your angel can fly !
