Holiness
Remember that in life you are never all alone. Just when you think you are, God sends an angel your way to remind you that he always holds your hand when you need him the most. Praise each day. It truly is a gift from God. Even if you do it only once in your lifetime, do make it a point to watch the sunrise at a beach. I guarantee you that it will indeed be an experience of a lifetime that you will never forget.

Never EVER lose hope. For example you can create a monthly newsletter reminding others of the importance of remaining positive irrespective of the hurt and pain they may be going through....If you are creative perhaps start an art class for others

Sing, Sing, Sing. Sing in the shower. Turn up the dial on the radio or CD player and sing along. It does not matter if you think you cannot sing or you feel that your voice is just a wee bit hoarse...simply sing along anyway. If your kids or your spouse make fun of your singing, sing even louder! Scientific research has shown that singing can boost your immune system. Laugh and smile every day....thats too long ...just try and smile every five minutes, if you remember to do so. Cannot change others opinion of you - can you...So why brow-beat on what others feel about you, when you are confident about yourself and are sure that you will not be affected by what others say about you...Your spouse, your kids, your family and friends may not understand why you are smiling or laughing....and maybe the only one who understands your smile is you, yourself....BUT remember.....always laugh at yourself....and never ever make the mistake of laughing at others.

Smile at strangers. You probably just made his or her day. Try never to ignore the homeless or those less fortunate than you. If you can sponsor a meal for those less fortunate than you, on your birthday or on your anniversary....imagine how many beautiful hearts and souls would genuinely be thankful for your gesture...would cost you less than a fancy meal at a

    No matter how hard we try to understand or how much we try to relate to someone who is going through something unspeakable we can't and we have to know that. All we can really do is try our best to be kind and respectful to them. As well as letting them know that we are there for them and are willing to listen to whatever it is that they need us to because at the end of the day we would want someone to do the same for…

    There is a lot of pain and struggle in us that we sometimes find hard to deal with. I was a child when I first learned what cancer meant and what it would do to my beautiful, loving and caring grandmother. I was still too young to understand fully, but I knew more or less that she would be leaving us too soon in her time. I saw her struggle with the changes the sickness had done to her body. She was weak and always tired. It hurt me so much to see her in pain and she always tried her very best to not show that she was hurting around us. She would smile and always have words of wisdom. Growing up she was the only person I thought I could tell my secrets to, my grandmother was my best friend. Before she passed I wanted to hold her, be with her and just…

    My wife passed away six months ago, on June 28, 2011, after she had struggled with cancer for 17 months. For 17 months, we went through cycles of promises of hope for her recovery, followed by announcements that another tumor had been found and they would try a different chemotherapy. Then hope! Then another tumor, a different type of treatment, more surgery, a different hospital, and different promises. Over and over. Yet none of those promises came true.…

    One friend I had in particular made this her life’s mission. My friend was diagnosed with cancer only one week after her 13th birthday. The doctor told her that she was only expected to live another 6 months before she would succumb to her disease. As the 6 month date quickly approached, we felt as if there was a noose around our necks, getting tighter with each calendar day passing. But she was stronger than all of us. I can still remember her saying “Why bother moping over something I can’t control? I’m not just going to sit here and waste away, waiting to die.”…

    My best friend Leah Nepomuceno is one of the strongest people I know, especially when it comes to family. Family to her is everything and she has done all she can to try and keep hers together as a whole. We were in sixth grade swinging on the swings outside at recess, whispering and giggling about our usual gossip when she received news from one of our teachers that we knew was serious by the look on her face and fear in her voice. She came up to us and told her she needed to go the office and that she was being dismissed, she gave me permission to walk with her inside. On the short but long felt walk inside Leah's heart was pounding, her hands were sweating, and her eyes were slowly filling with tears. Her mom was sitting in the big, blue, leather office chair with many of our elementary school teachers huddled around her sharing their sincere heart felt sympathy and much needed support. Leah's mom, Deb, had found out that day that her husband Ron, Leah's dad, was diagnosed with ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. The doctor had told Deb that is was going to slowly take away all of his muscles, eventually killing him and there was no cure for it. This news was heart wrenching for me to hear, since they were my second family, I grew up with them, Ron was my second dad. "It was like the last 11 years of memories with my dad flashed before my eyes and I didn't know what to do besides think of all the things we haven't done that we need to do before he dies," Leah replied when I asked her what her first thought was when she heard the news (Nepomuceno). Just talking to her now about it, 7 years later, is still just as heart breaking and you can hear the sadness in her voice.…

    Once, a girl came in and I started talking with her; she had an ASL background and knew enough signs to make conversation. We simply talked the entire time and got to know each other. I learned that she was hard of hearing, but no one focused on her enough to give her the care she needed. She struggles to keep up in school because she cannot hear, no assistance provided. Asking for someone to repeat something frustrates her to no end because people will shrug her aside, telling her "never mind". That day I was able to sit and listen to her for two hours. For that girl, I made her feel important and I hope to continue to invest in her life. In that moment, sitting there listening to this young girl who feels unimportant or even worthless, I knew every moment afterwards I would empathize with other individuals so that one day I can reveal to them the reason why they have worth, even if it seems unrecognizable to…

Support groups and independent people to talk to would provide an opportunity for the individual to talk and discuss their feelings. Experiences of others who have lost could be the audience of the group, as they will been through something similar and let the person know that it is ok to feel what they are feeling. Not telling someone how to feel is important, as each experience is different.…

    Not everything was a cake walk. When my blood counts were down and when I wasn’t able to overcome challenges I became isolated and depressed. I got angry at myself cause I wasn’t able to accomplish something that I wanted to. I became someone who was jealous because I was forced to be in the hospital doing nothing when all my friends were out having fun. It was a dark time in my life and there were several times when I wanted to give up. When I didn’t want to fight anymore. When I didn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel and didn’t see any purpose in continuing. It during this low point that one of my friends introduced me to Jimmy Valvano and Stuart Scott. Two very prolific men fighting cancer. While researching these men I came across quotes that motivated me to continue fighting. The Valvano quote that fueled the fire within was, “Don’t give up, don’t ever give up.” It is such a simple quote yet at the time it was exactly what I needed. Then I was hit by this quote from Stuart Scott, “You beat cancer by how you live, why you live, and in the manner in which you live.” These quotes opened my eyes and motivated me to continue even when I was feeling alone. They helped me overcome the challenge of depression. They mean so much to me that every morning I wake up I read them and remind myself what I have overcome and the testimony that…
