Happiness is a choice!

Hug yo wife, Hug yo kids

My baby brother, 4 kids, in his 40’s . He Just graduated from business college , a great job, his health was better than it had been in a long time. Then the news came,….

What a difference a month can make. First week in Sept I was hiking the Tetons with a great friend. A month later I’m battling leukemia. Hug yo wife, hug yo kids. Life is crazy!- Chad Cannon

We just never know. if you know me you know then you know my cancer experience story. If you don’t you can get an overview here.

7 months ago Love this, Sis! Grateful you’re still around to brighten our days!

Now it is him. He is 13 years younger, a miracle in itself that he is alive this long. He has his own story of heath and pushing through hard. He is sweet, kind, and smart. He helped me get my graduation plan in place and teaches me to be a little more kind, a little more unselfish every day. He is a peacemaker. This scripture shows the world what he is all about.

Mosiah 37 And how blessed are they! For they did apublish bpeace; they did publish good tidings of good; and they did declare unto the people that the Lord reigneth.

He is isn’t perfect, but I know from the bottom of my heart that he loves. He loves his family, and he wants them to have peace.

I do not understand why I am here on this earth when much younger and needed family members are passing on. If I was in charge, I would trade my life with my sweet son Tex or my young brother Chad. They have so much to live for, I do too, but I have had a good life. But I am not in charge.

I will go.

I will finish my college degree, one assignment at a time. I will go where the Lord needs me.

I will do.

I will keep working and looking ahead. I will live because I live.

I know that the Lord is in charge and I am at his mercy. He knows the mountains I will climb. He nows who need me. So again,

I live, so I will live.

Hug yo wife, Hug yo kids, Hug yourself,

Live because you live
