If I could relive them moments

“Every moment you get you just wonder what it was like before cancer and how all these people can move so fast around you, but here you are trying to create your new life and it could have been a year since your diagnosis or 3, it’s still not the same. So you get depressed. And you get over it. But it’s not so much of remembering the past as it is confused over the past and lost about the future because you can barely handle the present. That’s cancer.”

“The saddest thing about recovery is the illusion that you will be your old self again. When you are in recovery, you are in the process of becoming a new person with new set of ways to cope, with new set of ways to recharge and with new set of ways to find happiness. It’s basically starting a new life whether you like it or not.”

“There’s a difference between loving the idea of someone and loving the person they really are.”

“She greets the moon like an old friend that she’s been waiting for a lifetime As the night falls She floats up in the sky and began dancing like she never did before There she found beauty in the darkness”
