Cancer hit a friend of mine not that long ago.
And as I was biking to work with my two kiddos the other day, I was thinking about him.
What would be my ideal day? I wondered. What would I do with my time if I had gotten his diagnosis of a more or less non-treatable form of pancreatic cancer?
I thought about it. And I realized that it would start just like that one. Biking with my kids to daycare and then work.
It is hard to put into words the myriad reasons. Everyone has their own reasons why they go the way they go to get where they want to go.
I know few things in life but I have found my bliss biking to and from work everyday.
