Peace

A couple of weeks ago I found out that an aunt of mine was diagnosed with cancer; Stage 4. Her and I used to be really close about 10 years ago. Something happened that changed that. To be honest, I don't even remember what it was. All I know is that I distanced myself and kept it that way. My cousin called and asked if I was willing to make the peace. I had no interest in drudging up the past. Especially things I didn't remember. No good would come of it. On Thursday I went to my aunt's house. We hung around and just basically chit-chatted. Felt good. She is a fighter. She is going to fight the cancer and I really hope that she wins! I pray for her always! I feel good about rebuilding our relationship! Life's too short! Take it from me...don't stay angry at anyone, don't hold a grudge! Enjoy the time that you have on this earth. I wish I would have spent more time with my Aunt Sheila before she died....I miss her!
