The Board Room

The Board Room

I have a theory about what is going on here as I try to make some sense out of this completely nonsensical situation.  I feel like God is up there making the life changing decisions he makes or doing whatever it is he does exactly.  I picture God in a board meeting of sorts going through his list of daily jobs and odds and ends.  When he came to me I envision he considered my situation and said “you know, let’s get moving on Angie Lay.  I think it’s time to shake up her world a bit.  Let’s give her cancer, yeah breast cancer.  Actually I’ll tell you what, let’s just throw a bunch of stuff at her now and then it can be easy going from here on out.  What do you say?”  I’m not sure who God is speaking to in this scenario…his board, his assistant, his family, Buddha?  I don’t know exactly.  And then he moves on to other people in the world and a few housekeeping items like the weather, natural disasters, and New York Fashion Week.

Now I am not a particularly religious person, but I do believe in a higher power (God or someone similar running board meetings to determine everyone’s fate.)  People say everything happens for a reason, and I kinda sorta get that but not entirely.  Whatever the “reason” is for this happening to me I hope that I am able to fulfill that purpose.  I’m also holding on to the idea that it is going to be smooth sailing from here on out.  I hope God got the memo. 

Looking on the Bright Side…my hope is to help create awareness of breast cancer and the importance of early detection, especially in young women.  If that is my destiny as a result of all this, I will be proud to do it.
