Ms G's unbeatable mini burgers |
You know
you've met a good soul when you can catch up with someone and chat for hours,
despite not having seen them for over four years. Tonight I had the pleasure of
spending the evening with the lovely Amy Craddock, and friend and colleague
from my London glory days. It was great to catch up on the news, hear how
everyone is going and share some good laughs. We also had the pleasure of
eating Ms G's mini burgers. They really are quite special.
Despite the
great company and good food, the most inspiring part of the evening was hearing
the stories of two women Amy knows of though friends. Both are under 30 and
both battling cancer. They are fighting a tough battle with courage and wit.
Both have started blogs, which share their experiences, thoughts and insights. Hearing
their stories made my heart skip a beat. There in that moment my life fell
sharply into perspective. All those things I’d spent my day thinking about and
worrying about don’t matter. Life and good health should be appreciated and treasured
everyday. I need to constantly remind myself to do this, not just when something
jolts me to do so.
Here is a
link to one of the blogs for anyone who is interested. It is truly inspiring! http://writtenoff.net/about/
I will find the address for the second blog and
post it here in the coming days.
