Hey - It's Spring!

So today I found out that I am ok. Really ok. No sign of anything. They told me to get on with my life (their words, not mine). But I still have to see one more doctor. I am cancelling that appointment. I'm done. It's time to get on with my life. I had my CT scan on October 20. Today is March 23. I think 5 months of uncertainty is more than anyone should have to endure. I am certain I am fine and it's time to get to the next chapter of my life. I think 33 is going to be a lucky year for me.

I was visited by a hawk every day the week preceding my initial test. He even landed in the tree above my head (about 3 feet above me) one day. A few weeks later he stood across the street from me as I walked to my car and let me get only 8 feet away from him. On Wednesday before I went to the doctor he flew over my car in the driveway and circled for a while. Another one flew in front of my windshield on my way to the doctor that day. What does it mean? I searched for the meaning of the hawk and found some interesting ideas:

If a hawk has soared into your life, you require a higher perspective. You need to see the details of what is going on and look at the bigger picture. Take a look at your situation from above.

The hawk comes to you indicating that you are now awakening to your soul purpose, your reason for being here. It can teach you how to fly high while keeping yourself connected to the ground.

I found something that told me the hawk symbolizes a new journey. Well, this was certainly a journey.

I have grown closer to everyone in my life because of this, I've let go of past hurts and toxic people and I'm much closer to God. My perspective is changed and I am trying to become a better person and look at the big picture. Are there signs? Who knows, but if it makes me think more about my life and my faith, then is it a bad thing?

Thanks to all who have been there for me. I could never thank you enough.

Oh, and Katie, I love Maury. I just can't admit it. His phobia episodes are pure genius. I love the one where the lady was afraid of olives and the other lady was afraid of kittens. Youtube them.
