Sitting in the chemo room with my husband while he received his first treatment stuns me. There are all ages here, young and old, all receiving their hope in a bag hung close.

Two steps forward, one step back. Ever feel this way? I can feel my spiritual journey moving forward, but it’s the hard difficulties that trip me up, that make me question everything I know, or do they? Often I am beset by difficulties.

My husband and I recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary. We didn’t do those special things people do on those big dates like cruises or Europe trips.

I am learning that some change for me is very hard. And if I really like something or someone that I am loyal to, then changing things up on me doesn’t sit well with me.
