waiting for the other shoe

 Its the beginning of April 2020 and hubbs is taking a turn for the better. We are seeing the chemo working without causing many side effects, he still has his hair and a good appetite even though losing 60 lbs. Between chemo and radiation his tumor has nearly disappeared, they are treating his cancer aggressively so he will continue on chemo and daily radiation for several more weeks.

I'm seeing good signs, yet, I am holding my breath.

I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.

We spend so much time worrying about what may come. We waste our present, our today, worrying about the terrible things that may happen. In retrospect, even with his cancer and the knowing of what could/would eventually be, i should have found more things to celebrate in those days. 

Our present, this moment, is the only moment that matters. Yesterday is gone and never coming back, it does us no good to dwell on what was. Tomorrow never comes, there will always be a tomorrow. Right now is all we have. 

“Take one day at a time. Today, after all, is the tomorrow, you worried about yesterday.” Billy Graham

That other shoe may or may not ever drop, might as well make the most of today. Stop waiting for that other shoe to drop.
