I HEAR YOU KNOCKING BUT YOU CAN’T COME IN!
SCENARIOS:
I’m a young woman, only 27, with my first baby on the way! I’m full of excitement waiting for his or her birth—planning the nursery and awaiting the baby shower.
I have 4 children (1 set of twins), all of whom are in high school! My life is so busy with kids’ music lessons and after-school activities.
I’m reaching the pinnacle of my career! I’m getting ready to break through that glass ceiling, and my personal life is wrapped up in my job. There is no time for even the personal me!
I’m getting ready to start retirement! My husband and I are making plans for a cruise and then a trip to Ireland later in the year.
I’m in my golden years! I’m ready to read those unread books, work in the gardens, enjoy my grands and do a little weekend traveling here and there.
BUT YOU CANNOT IGNORE ME! I WAS KNOCKING AND NOW I AM IN!!
Gals of all ages, put on those pink gloves and fight! We have so much to live for, no matter our ages; and if we have opened the doors for God’s plan for our lives, we will have much to share through our experiences and our strengths for those women coming behind us.
As we like to say at The Sparkle Caps Project, we are HOT CHICKS! Our femininity is not tied to our hair loss; and I might add, it is not tied to our boobs, especially if they are out to get us! The cancer journey is not easy by a long shot, but it is full of miracles and blessings if we will just open our eyes to the beauty of each day—the PRESENT that God has given us is today!
February 4th marked my 4th year as a breast cancer survivor, and God has so richly blessed me through my cancer and beyond. He is there for you, too. God bless you!
