Change Not Always Good

My life has definitely changed a lot in 2016, and will continue to change from here on out. In January my mother was diagnosed with stomach cancer. Devastating to say the least, but thankfully she is undergoing treatment at one of the best cancer treatment centers in the United States at University of California, San Francisco. She is strong, and I am confident she will beat this, but it is very sad news to share and I still have not told very many people because it is just really hard for me to talk about. Obviously change is not always good, and I have begun to reflect more about life and what we are here for. It is clear to me now that the most important things in life are family and love. We all experience life with different attributes, but everyone grows and develops within a "family" be it by blood or not. If you are lucky enough to have a family, keep them close, love, and live.
