I have looked at my header picture and often thought about whether it is appropriate or not for my blog. Friends and family see it, including my sons – it is on public display after all.
The reality is, this is me. This blog is me. And the stuff I write about is the naked me – about my deepest thoughts, emotions, love, and life. It would be inappropriate to use a naked pic of me so this is the closest I can get to showing the real naked me to you all.
This photograph is about 4 years old now and yes, it had a little help from photoshop. I am a few years older now and have lost a little lot more weight and have a few more wrinkles – thanks to a fight with Throat Cancer in the last year. But I fought and won and am in the clear!
Cancer was my greatest fear. I wasn’t afraid of dying from anything besides Cancer (Okay maybe scorpions too!). But I got cancer and survived. So now I have no fears – I am invincible.
I have realized life is short so I intend to live life to the fullest. Not wasting a single moment to enjoy it and take full advantage of what it has to offer! My only hope is that you are all by my side enjoying it with me.
