Setting here thinking about chemo, I am reminded of a little story I heard a few years ago. Here it goes to the best of my recollection.
A woman having cancer and on chemo went to her mirror to see just how she could better fix her hair that particular day. She never knew what the new day would bring because of her hair loss. Looking into her mirror, she saw three hairs, as she studied on the matter, she decided to part her hair in the middle, having one hair on either side and one flowing down the back of her head. she fixed her hair, sprayed it, to keep in place, then preceded to go on with her day.
The next morning as she gazed into her mirror, she saw that she had only two hairs to fix. As she studied again on the style she would ware for the day, she decided that she'd ware her hair in pigtails. Again she parts her hair in the middle, one hair on either side, sprayed the two fragile hairs in place and went on about her day.
The next morning as she walks over to her mirror, so tired from all the daily routine and treatments, she looked into her mirror to see only one hair remaining on her head. and she considered the one hair, she decided to ware a pony tail for the day. She takes the one hair and combs it to the back of her head, sprays it in place, and then does on with her day.
Now the next morning, she struggles to get out of bed, and on her feet. She walks over to where her mirror is to look and see no hairs on her head. A big smile comes upon her face as she says a little prayer of thanks to God. She said, Thank You God for taking the burden from me, now I don't have to worry how I am going to fix my hair.
The lesson of the story is, It's all about attitude. Where most would see her head and have pity on her. She had no self pity, and looked on each thing as a blessing. She found all the good she could from each circumstance that availed itself in her life. There is good to be found in every circumstance of our lives, it's up to us to look for it. Be of good attitude friends, find the good things that bless your life's daily
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for Good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.until the next time, God bless.
