I Believe

I believe that everything happens for a purpose.

I believe that there is much good that will come out with knowing that I have stage 3 cancer.

I believe that I can live for 20 days, 20 weeks, 20 months or 20 years more.

I believe that I need not be defeated by a defeatist attitude.

I believe that with the sense of humor I am notorious for, I can "survive".

I believe in love.

I believe in God.

I believe in miracles.

I believe in kindness of heart everywhere.

I believe that this creed can go on and on.

Because as long as I believe, the fear, the pain, the anxiety subside.
