I think I'm a lucky person. It sounds strange to say that, I know. But I absolutely feel that. I feel relieved from stresses, that I deserve to feel joyful. It's a richness that you sink into.
Every day is beautiful doing mundane things.
So I'm happy. And I think I'm living much more deeply than I would be if my life wasn't fragile, or threatened. Illness brings you to places you never would have been. You open up and do things you never would have done. I have always believed that the good should be enjoyed, that happiness is very important, because it's not always going to be there.
