She looked up as we passed and said, “It’s cold again!” We had just parked; she was a nurse and was headed for the hospital several streets over. Her greeting got me thinking of how life is made up of places we’ve been, and the unknown. For some the unknown becomes a small grain of doubt or fear, which grows into an anxiety that takes over their lives. Mark Nepo in his book, The Exquisite Risk, tells us, “Life takes time to live”, and as a cancer survivor I’ve learned my hardest job is to let the unknown of my journey just unfold. Patience weaves a peace in my journey that gives my life unexpected joy and wholeness. Today, find joy in the moment and the way things are.
