What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

A profound sense of loss and grief as my cousin lost her 5 1/2 year battle to cancer. Three of us started this crazy battle together within three months of each other. Although all of our cancers were different, we were there to support, encourage, celebrate the victories and a shoulder to cry on. I will miss her greatly. One is gone, and two remain. We will honor her by not taking a day for granted as she always fought for "one more". Even at the end when she was bed ridden and being eaten by this disease from the inside out, she still found joy in her family, her puppies, fresh flowers, sunrises, sunsets and the birds that flocked to the feeder. We all have a start date and an end date, and what matters is what we do in-between. The little dash is everything and Patty you lived and loved well. May any of us do it with half the grace you did it with.
 
Angry. I am mad that bad stuff happens. I am mad that the memories will always be there. I am mad that it happened. I am mad that I have to deal with it. I am mad that it affected me. I am mad that it is still affecting me. I am mad that I don't know how to express my anger. I am mad. and I am scared. And I wish some magical human existed that could take it all away. And it is confusing to have my body have such strong emotional responses. A real response, and that is just something else entirely. It's not a big deal, it's just a thing that happened. My body disagrees. It is weird to have a real response. It'll just take adjustment.
