Today I ran into a friend…
I have not seen in her years…
She looked so different….
I have not seen someone smile so much…
My friend is a mother. She is 29. She has 2 little children. She is undergoing chemotherapy treatment for Breast Cancer.
Her courage…her hope….her happiness inspires me…
…you see, this morning I woke up feeling down about still having too much of the “baby fat”, upset that my anniversary wasn’t all that I thought it should be, impatient with my kiddos temper tantrums…the list could go on. Then in a parking lot, I saw her. I was so humbled and thankful…I needed that smile so much today. She reminded me of how precious life is and how blessed we are. She put it into perspective with how brave she is and how she knows all will be well…whatever it will be.
I aspire to be like her…
