I have been waiting two days for the results of the biopsy on my left breast that my doctor performed on Wednesday.  Honestly, I have not been afraid.  I guess 57 years of learning I cannot know the unknowable, control the uncontrollable, or prevent the unpreventable has left me with a deep level of faith that I am strong enough to deal with whatever life brings.  I’ve also learned that worry is absolutely useless to making me feel better in any way.

My physician just called to say he will not know for sure until Monday afternoon. Regardless of the outcome I will prevail because I am truly dedicated to using the challenges in life to blossom. It is times like these when I get to walk my talk of being patient, peaceful, present and purposeful and that is what I am focused on now.
