Plus, a story about hope.
Given the state of the world these days, we could all use a little hope. This HuffPost Personal story is written by a woman who just married the love of her life in her fifties despite his terminal cancer diagnosis — and as heavy as that sounds, it focuses on what she’s learned about hope, given her life circumstances. “The key is letting go of the belief that I can control what happens and getting in touch with the real source of hope, which is internal, not external,” the author writes. “Hope is a wellspring planted inside each of us that’s available in any situation, including incurable cancer. That sense of joy and well-being doesn’t have to go away when life takes an unexpected turn.” Read the full story here. Xo, Ashley Rockman |
