“Something that brings you joy”
Feb 13 2026 05:29PM more by Petite14u2use
Tags: Random

As some of you know, I am my mothers caregiver while she battles cancer again (bone cancer this time around, she already beat breast cancer 10 years ago and colon cancer almost 3 years back). Iv been doing this for awhile but lately it has been getting progressively worse. I swear I can see the decline daily, it’s been rough.
Well mom has gone to hospice and they gave me an opportunity to get take a break, they told me to take a break, do “ something that brims me joy”. Wouldn’t you know that joy I find in life is you gentlemen. 4 real, the people of HX have brought me so much joy and PEACE IN LIFE so of course that’s where I turned to! Like duh!!!

But I just wanted to say THANK YOU. From the bottom of my heart! I honestly don’t know where I would need without all of you

If your reading this do me a huge favour- think positive thoughts for mom and help me manifest a ramp for the rv you all helped me get so as I could take her out and make memories.
You all have brought me this far. Please help me carry her a little further!

It really is AMAZING how far positive thoughts/words/ideas can take you!

I totally get that Sydney, Water does have tranquility. I just found myself, maybe not in an ocean or lake, but surrounded by the beauty of water. Both phonically an aesthetically was quite easy to get myself lost in it.

Thanks for sharing here publicly and as you have done before. I hope this is helpful to you.

And thank you for your long support of and care for your mother. It's a choice to do this, and although its been hard at times, it was the right choice and you are a better person for it.

Look forward to seeing you-

Sydney I would love to take you sailing, and share this tranquility of nature. The most peaceful time is when I shut off the engine and the boat making way with just the wind. You only hear the wind in the sails and the water slapping the hull, it doesn’t get any better.

Last time I went sailing we saw dolphins migrating for as far as we could see in every direction. They were swimming in sync.
It was so magical.
I love sailing.

Well Petite you know what I’ve been going through for the past year plus now and I know what you are going through. It’s been rough on the both of us. I find now the little things that I overlooked or took for granted bring me the most joy. Waking up in the morning to see the sun rising, calling family and friends and hearing their voices . Greeting friends with a hug instead of a handshake. Man I have changed as you have for the better. Simple joys now bring the biggest happiness
