Choosing a word for 2022 was pretty easy. This past year, I felt like I spent so much time in survival mode dealing with pancreatic cancer that I didn’t fully live life. So, as you might have already guessed, my word for 2022 is “live”.
Every day is a new day and I am thankful for being able to wake up. I still don’t care for mornings, but I am so grateful for the opportunity to get out of bed and take part in life. Knowing many people have lost their lives to cancer makes me appreciate it even more. So I don’t want to waste my chance to continue enjoying life and living it to the fullest.
Not only do I intend to live life fully this year, I plan to continue being alive and not die from recurring cancer or anything else that might remove me from this plane of existence. Whatever is in my control and power to do, I’ll do it.
I also want to encourage others to live. Enjoy your life! You only get this one once, so make the most of it. Share love with everyone around you. Make the world a better place through actions large and small.
The past couple of years have been tough for everyone. Let’s all live in 2022 and celebrate life!
