What brought you joy today?

Posted by northoftheborder @northoftheborder, Jun 28, 2024

If you've been living with cancer for a while, you know it's not all gloom and doom. Where did you find joy today? I'll start:

1. Working in my garden.
2. Meeting my daughter for tea.
3. Home-made pizza for dinner.
4. My spouse (always).
5. Some interesting online discussions.
6. Rereading a good novel.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Cancer Support Group.

Today, I was able to:
Speak with a dear friend and "catch up";
Speak with my little sister, and have a heartfelt conversation;
Enjoy the coolish morning, listening to doves and watching scrub jays;
Know that today I am in the right place, at the right time.

I was at a garden party today and met really interesting and nice people. It took my mind off illness for a while.
