Being Significant…

“I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit.”

~ Dawna Markova ~

The above quote is perfect.. exactly what I needed to hear last night when I heard it.

Today is PET scan day.. one of two tests this week. I’m a little scared.. of what it all could mean. I am trying to be positive but there is a part of me that is nervous.. I don’t want to be but as a friend told me last night (after a light night panic text).. he would be worried if I wasn’t. So as long as I keep everything in check and think and act as the above quote states I should be golden.
