Unexpected Blessing

I won't go into much of my past, but I rarely went to the doctor or concerned about my health. I had a lot of issues but didn't want to go through anymore. In the worst of times, a new girl came into my life and with concerns for my health, she insisted I have a colonoscopy.

I listened to her and went only to find I had some cancer cells. They were removed and I got a clean bill of health. I write this in retrospect to my situation. I didn't understand all the struggles and losses I endured but because of them, I am in a better place today than I ever had been in my life.

I was asking the question why I had to endure. Today I say I am thankful I endured 2015 to get what I have received in 2016. When problems come you way there may be something so much greater than what you have now. Just my thought!
