Optimism

Andi Van Heel: Optimism
We have three choices when faced with an obstacle: move forward, step back, or quit.

Being told of an incurable, often recurring illness that may cause severe pain, infertility, and possible life-threatening organ issues? It was: move forward or step back.

Quitting? It’s not truly an option any of us wish to face.

Step back? There is no stepping back once you’re told you have a condition. An illness. A disease. Growths. Pain. Adhesions. Medical procedures. Holistic care. Endless...There’s no turning around and hiding from this.

But move forward into what?

Grief. Anger. A struggle ahead. Yes, I’ll move forward into each of those. But...I, and others like me, shall continue to move forward. To move through all of that. And find something greater.

Strength. Purpose. Love. And each other.
I choose to live in Optimism
