Facing the Unknown with Relief

Filed under Self Reflection

Lollipop

Right before I found out the tumor is benign I wrote in my journal, “You know this unknown (the biopsy results) really isn’t all that different from any other unknown.  We live with things we can’t know and control all the time.  So why not live happily with this unknown too?”

And then the nurse called me to give me the good news.

It seems like as soon as I let go of the fear and needing to know…I found out.  And as soon as I fully embraced simply putting myself out there…I found out it wasn’t life threatening.

“Funny” how that works, eh?

I mean part of me is pissed off…like why does it have to be like that anyway?!  And another part of me is so relieved…
