HAPPY MOTHERS DAY
May is here, this month is a time to celebrate hope, renewal, and new beginnings.
As this month begins, just remember anything is possible.
I grew up in Florida, spending the summers on the beach.
Collecting seashells, getting sunburn, waiting for the seagulls splashing in the gulf, and watching for sailboats to pass.
It was exciting, but I took it for granted.
As time went on, when I entered mid-life, something changed; I was told I had breast cancer.
I experienced dealing with my father, aunts, uncles, cousins, and mother-in-law, all having cancer and being treated the conventional way; all of which died.
So, even if I was living in paradise, I just knew my time was going to be next.
But!!!
With a little bit of knowledge on the internet, Dan, my husband, and I researched this program that was not invasive and had good results.
This program led us to Mexico, where I had met doctors that not only treated me and my husband for cancer, but was enthusiastic about teaching us about a healthier lifestyle.
KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!
Long story short, this led us to living in Mexico for at that time only for two years to regroup our lives.
Moving to Ajijic, Mexico, there was so many adventures and friendships that two years became seven years.
While we were living there, Heckle our pet turtle became part of our family that when we moved back to United States, we just could not leave him.
So, yes, we had to get him legally processed to become an American.
If you have been following our YouTube channel,
You have seen Lessons by Heckle.
Through all Dan and my adventures, walks and healthy lifestyles posts, I have created a new project, The Journey to Good Health Art.
Using Roanoke, Virginia nature!
I wanted to create something through art to illustrate through pictures, words, nature, and vision ways to keep a positive way of living.
Again, everything is possible, for who thought I could create a website and blog post, publish a book, and create art pieces to share one’s passion for creating a healthier lifestyle.
Yes, anything is possible!
So, reflecting on the optimism and promise of the season, go out of your comfort zone, and learn something new.
