I have been busy living this year! I am marking things off my list and it has been an incredible start to 2015! So good that I catch myself at times thinking, should I be this happy? Really...after the loss of both of my parents, how can I move on and enjoy life?? Is it OK to be happy? Everyone deals with grief in their own way and I believe that living does not dishonor the memory of the lost loved one. It does not diminish the love you had for them and it certainly does not mean you are happy without them. Living life honors them in the best way you can! I think of my mom & dad often through the adventures of #brandislist this year. I am un-cluttering my life. I am clearing my head. I am taking time to enjoy the life in a way I have not done for a long time. My dad would get such a kick out of the updates and hearing the stories. My mom would have joined me for a few. As a matter of fact, there is a reason I have not done a puzzle yet and I have put off #42 for the perfect moment. She loved puzzles and "Gone With the Wind" was her favorite movie. I am sad that I never watched it with her...
Cancer robs you of the future. Cancer takes away tomorrow. I am committed to a world that preserves the future and allows you to plan for tomorrow with your loved ones.
It is hard to believe that Pelotonia15 is a mere 10 days away! I am all in again this year and riding 180 miles. I upped my game for 2015 and am a High Roller, which means I have committed to raising $4000 for this extraordinary cause. I am humbled by the generosity of my friends, family and some people that I have just met. I am honored to pedal the miles, to raise awareness and share the message. #wearefastertogether
