Mental slap to the head...


So, I was having this moment where I was pissed off and depressed about something – god, please, no cyber hugs – people are allow to feel down without having that extra, ooky crap thrust on them…anyway I went to meet up with a friend who is just about to undergo chemo due to breast cancer. She was telling me how scared she was and unsure how she would react and if it would change her as a person. I said she was one of the stronger, more positive people I knew and couldn't image her not being able to get through chemo nor could I see her change because  strong people dealt with stuff and moved on better for it. Yeah. Uh-huh. I thought about what was getting me down before seeing her and I gave myself a good, hard mental slap because my worries were minuscule compared to hers. Sometimes you just have to hear yourself talk to realize that you don’t always talk crap and maybe it’s worth blanking out the dark side for a moment to listen to your own advice.

Yes, it only takes that occasional sharp reminder, doesn't it?

Dealing with life threatening diseases, sure puts things in perspective doesn't it?
