Cancer
noun. "A pernicious, spreading evil."
It seems as if with each blog entry, the topics which spring to mind, of which I find myself talking about - grow darker, and darker. And to those reading it, I'm sure it seems as if with these topics, my mood also grows pessimistic, along with my thoughts; However, this isn't true. And although I find myself constantly noting down the bad things which plague the deepest parts of ourselves daily, and not all those that are good; I feel as if I haven't lost sight of them, and that even in the bad, there are some things which are good.
Cancer; There are many definitions. But the one above seems to fit it most. At yet, there, in all its glory, as one of the most malicious and evil diseases, there is some good. Because cancer, makes people stronger.
I suppose at some point I should tell you why I even brought this up. But I think maybe it isn't a neccesity just yet.
So, it makes people stronger? How? Although I myself am not quite sure, I know it does. Something about the disease, makes YOU want to fight it. And win.
And when I say you, I don't just mean those with the disease itself. But anyone and everyone who is close to you, almost always have the same burning desire to defeat the beast which is causing you so much pain.
It makes people ready, ready for anything.
It brings out the fighter in all of us, and for that - It isn't all bad.
In life, it's important not to focus on the bad things all the time, and to notice that even if they are minute, and nearly insignificant, every problem has a positive aspect, and a way in which it can be dealt with.
I suppose that people deal with things in different ways, but to me it seems the only option when dealing with things which appear to be all bad, aesthetically of course, is to find strength in the smaller, better things within them.
It isn't easy, finding strength. Like searching for a needle in a haystack. It doesn't always come without a struggle. But when people find it, they latch onto it, and use it to get them through other problems in their lives. I think, maybe I need to find strength, and just haven't been looking hard enough. Its there, It definately is. It's just a matter of working it out.
For the crypticness of this entry, I apologise. I'm not even sure myself what I was getting at. And I think, in order for me to find the strength I'm speaking of, I should figure that out first.
