Thriving Past Cancer: Marine's Journey

One of the goals set last year was going to Hawaii. It was actually #1 on my top ten list of goals, made during a chemo-session, sitting in an infusion chair with neighbor/friend NG. Physically traveling to Hawaii helped me realize a couple of goals this last December. The realization of this goal also knocked off numerous other goals I had set up the day of my infusion. It marked three months out of cancer-still remission free (goal #2), helped me remember the lesson ’ s learned (goal #3) without breaking down and placing blame upon myself or the world for the path I ’ d walked, allowed me to physically step into water (goal #5), and provided me with ample opportunities to meditate and write (goal #10).   While there I went hiking (goal # 4), and found an overall balance in life (goal #9). The few goals I didn ’ t seem to meet last year were so trivial that I don ’ t even need to focus on them here, they too shall be met in there own time, at their own pace. This post howev
