Love Yourself

The Beatles knew what they were talking about when they sang "All You Need is Love." The ancient Chinese believed that the most powerful energy is white energy, or, love energy. Although "love" can be seen as a frilly word that we use to express intense emotion or feelings, we cannot underestimate it's healing powers. It is powerful beyond anything else, and if we can shed as much love on ourselves as we possibly can, our healing brightens. Let love in. Let it shine it's bright white energy through you and fill you up to the brim. 
I finished my very last treatment this past Thursday. It was humbling, liberating, exhilarating and  mostly, full of love. As I sat waiting for the last of the chemo to pass through the I.V. and through my veins, I couldn't help but look around me and see love everywhere. I honestly believe that love carried me through this ordeal, from the very beginning to the very last drop. I hope that you too can let it in and feel the brightening and lifting of your spirit. That is something cancer can never touch.

The Importance of Family & Friends

One of the most important things that has come from this experience for me is the major role that my family & friends have played. The bottom line is this: the people who truly love and care about you show up. They are there up to bat for you, swinging their hardest. It has been the most remarkable thing to experience; incredibly moving and fulfilling to the brim. And it is our job to let the love in. I can honestly say that I have never felt more love in my life than right now. It has been floating along by my side, helping my spirits stay high and keeping my focus bright. So let those who love you, love you. Let them help if and when needed. And do not waste any time on anybody who is not present to love you, especially during this hard time. Surround yourself with positive, radiant and nurturing energy. It truly makes all the difference.
