Positive thoughts can be exhausting
Good for you! That is very difficult. Both being positive and handling that kind of news. If you keep that mindset I’m sure it will help you continue to cope!
I'm sorry to hear about your friend.
You are stronger than you think. Keep up the good work.
Yay! for you...and that sounded like a full-day. I agree, positive thoughts can be exhausting, but less-so as they become more of a default-mode...

When I speak scripture over my life it is such a calming and positive reminder that I am not alone and do not have to walk the hardships alone. Life gets overwhelming and yes cancer is a scary word but refocusing on the beauty of life and finding the beauty in the struggle is so important for us and for our friends who are walking through such difficult circumstances. Praying for you and your friend. -Rachel
