Re: What has cancer given you? The good and the bad?

I hope I am more compassionate. I am so very aware of how vulnerable we humans are.
I allow myself to be ordinary. I beat myself up for so long because I wasn't as successful, outgoing (fill in the blank) as I thought I should be. I still am hard on myself, but it's tempered with a willingness to be ordinary.
