Still Yours

When something hard enters your life, it can start to take up more space than you expected.

It influences decisions.

It shapes conversations.

It changes the way people look at you.

Over time, it can begin to feel like the center of everything.

But your life is still yours.

There are parts of you that remain untouched.

Your humor.

Your preferences.

Your way of seeing the world.

Those do not disappear because of a diagnosis.

They may adjust.

They may deepen.

But they remain.

Hard seasons expand certain chapters.

They do not erase the rest of the story.

And you are still the one living it.
