Just a quick post to let you know that I'm doing ok. 

Physically, life has returned to normal as I enjoy this season of freedom from my cancer treatments. As a matter of fact, I feel GREAT! However, I feel unsettled in not knowing if the six weeks of treatment served its purpose ... won't know for certain until May 11th.

Emotionally and Spiritually, I've been doing a lot of soul searching and along with counseling I believe my life is slowly falling back into place. Through counseling, I've been able to let some emotional issues go that were a hindrance to my well-being. I've adopted some new survival tools and techniques with which I can make each day count. And I've ventured into putting my spiritual life in order. It's amazing how daily devotionals in conjunction with prayer can make life a whole lot better to live. The peace I find through these two activities have made a difference in how I feel and live each day.

Mentally, well, if this makes any sense, I feel more relaxed than before. I have less days of depression and anxiety. I'm more focused than before. And I'm not as restless thus drastically curtailing emotional distress which at times got me into a whole lot of trouble. It feels great to be more evenly connected than the disconnection I felt before I began counseling.

If I had to sum everything up into words I would have to say; all is good. I'm a lot happier than I've ever been. Still got some miles to travel, but with on foot in front of the other, I know that my quality of life will greatly improve as I continue the path I've been following for the past several months. I am glad that I finally decided to seek counseling.

Below are pictures I've taken around the house. Actually, I'm still getting acquainted with my new Blackberry camera so I've been snapping away ... LOL. Anyway, I hope you enjoy.

Until Tomorrow ...
