Like everyone around me, I was sitting in the hospital waiting room reading magazines from before my kids were born. At the request of my doctor I was having a few tests done. Nothing major, just playing it safe.
A lady in her late 60s sat down beside me and started a conversation. We talked about her battle with cancer and how she had used a strict vegetarian diet, eating only organics in an attempt to win her fight against the disease.
As with most people that have been around for awhile, she had great experiences to share. The key is listening. I learned so many things from the stranger next to me. After 30 minutes she was called away by one of the doctors. As she was leaving she mentioned today was a big day for her. She said that her test results would determine if she was to stay or go. These were her words, not mine.
When we are open to learn, lessons are everywhere. Now it’s up to me to do something with it.
