One of the reason’s (actually the main reason) I love working for myself is freedom. Today I took advantage of this freedom to ignore my schedule and take my mum to lunch.
My mum is amazing but she’s recently become nervous of driving long distances so hasn’t been able to visit her friends. I say friends, but they’re really more like family as they’ve been there for every event for more than 40 years.
I feel so lucky to be able to drop everything and spend the whole day with my family. We laughed, talked and reminisced and ate lots of delicious food.
If I take anything away from today, it’s the power of positive thought.
It doesn’t matter if the doctor tells you you’ve only got six months to live – you have to keep planning for the future. Having something good to look forward to can make all the difference to your diagnosis.
