Great New Day

I had every intention of posting when I got back to the hotel yesterday afternoon, but it turned out to be a grueling day for both of us. We spent hours trying to download a GPS ap from iTunes and for some reason it wasn't working. It's ridiculous how something so stupid can cause such stress and be so draining. Another opportunity for growth! So much fun. We went to Manju's for dinner, that was very uplifting and relaxing so I slept really well (and rather late) so I feel great today. In fact, we had a fairly relaxing day today, just took it easy, which is what we both needed. Tomorrow should be a pretty low key day, as well. So I think well be in excellent shape for my tests on Tuesday! Most of Tuesday is booked with tests and then Wednesday I have my first chemotherapy treatment, it's funny, because I don't feel worried about it - I think this is what I need to be doing now and basically it's just a matter of putting one foot in front of the other and moving forward one step at a time, which is what I'm doing!

I still am just amazed & extremely grateful and happy at all the love and prayers that are coming my way - it's an amazing feeling to realize so many people care so much, I had no idea. This whole experience has been so phenomenal in so many ways it's just awesome. Of course, if I'm honest, I think I would have preferred some other catalyst for the experience, but I do know it's very important for my overall well being and growth/development in this life. Let's face it everything that happens and how we choose to handle it brings us that much closer to connecting to the divine within us. I'm trying to use those who have gone before me as an example, to follow there higher examples rather than succumbing to my lower nature. I feel like I can choose to embrace all of this with grace & presence thereby allowing it to be a very touching divine experience or I can choose to succumb to my attachments to this life and fight the experience which will make it not only negative, but frustrating and honestly it won't ultimately effect the destined outcome, so I figure I'll take the high road and trust myself in Gods care. This entire experience is actually very uplifting - which still sort of blows my mind, but I'm trying to stay focused on the positive energy which is permeating everything - my hope is that like Ghandi, I can keep God in the forefront of my thoughts & I believe that is achievable! It's really a pretty good feeling and being able to turn loose of so much of this by leaving myself in God's hands, which I feel in turn he has me in the care of doctors who know what I need - is incredibly freeing. I feel a tremendous weight has been removed from my shoulders. It's amazing the relief and calm that comes from it. Wow is all I can say!

I hope I haven't rambled too much, if I have, I'm sorry! Well, I'm going to sign off now, it's about time for another meal - that seems to be the main thing I do these days! I'll be back tomorrow, I promise! Have a great evening, I know I'm going to. Thanks again for all the love and prayers!
