Impossible to the Possible


This weekend winter storm Jonas buried a large portion of the Northeast with record snowfalls, storm tides, and hurricane force winds.  Thursday evening Michael and I had flown into what we thought would be a sunny Orlando for a pre-site visit for the upcoming AJHP conference, but Jonas had cooled even central Florida to the mid-30s to low-50s.  We had hoped to enjoy a waterpark on Saturday afternoon, but it was too cold, so instead we walked Disney Springs, people watched, and talked about life. 


After supper, we went to the Cirque du Soleil and watched dancers, and fearless performances of physical strength and balance.  As we walked out into the cold at the end of the show, I was stopped by the full moon hung on one of the cross-beams of the House of Blues water tower.  Like the full moon glow, I felt an internal smile that reminded me of the fearlessness of many of my fellow cancer survivors and caregivers who have turned an impossible life into days filled with joy, hope, and the possible.  Fill your days with the possible!
