A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor. Didn’t you say you wanted more? Didn’t you say you wanted to become better and now that you’re challenged you want to throw in the towel. You stomp your feet. You cry over at God. God will steer but you must row. When he was making David king he gave him Goliath, not a crown. He gave him a challenge. Everyone’s challenges are different but you must prevail and become stronger through it.

I always say that cancer was one of the best things that’s ever happened to me and people look at me like I’m crazy, but it genuinely blessed my life with so much perspective and propelled me into the next phase of my life.

I don’t understand this. You can choose what you’re grateful for. You don’t HAVE to be grateful for all of it? Like I’m sorry I won’t be grateful for gratuitous suffering that was unnecessary. It’s a false binary.

I always say that I love to suffer. Everything that’s happened to me has been FOR me. Good, bad, ugly. Life has taught me so much.

Although I’m not religious Ive believed this my whole life. I’m grateful for the suffering and the beauty because neither of them will be brought with me through death, so I much enjoy the processing of both information because at the end of the day, the time at which I have to process it is finite, and rapidly slipping away at that. Every day.

I’m atheist but I think having the opportunity to be alive and feel the emotions of a human are what you should be grateful for not necessarily categorizing experiences as good or bad, it’s just life and we are all blessed to live it. That’s my perspective at least
