But first a quick update. I have now completed 22 cycles of radiation (week 29) and I am thankfully on a break for Christmas. I have some issues I need to work through but nothing horrible.
In the meantime, my hair is growing back, unfortunately it is also growing in places that I would prefer it NOT grow. (And I'd thank you for not mentioning my newly acquired fuzzy sideburns - yaay chemo!)
I am also trying to improve my diet, not that I had very bad habits before, but I am increasing the amount of vegetables in my diet and have to deal with the attendant side effects that come with consuming copious quantities of highly gassy foods.
But enough of that, on to joy. I was recently watching a movie, The Bucket List, and I thought I'd share the two questions that the characters (facing death) reflect on in the movie:
Do you have joy in your life? Or, alternatively, look for the joy in your life.
Did you bring joy to others?
So over this holiday season those might be some thoughts to noodle on.
Wishing you much joy in your life!
