Albert Camus wrote, “Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.” Is this not a beautiful quote?

My life before cancer was like spring: full of energy, optimistic, and blooming with ideas and projects. When cancer became a part of my life, it was like the coldest and most severe winter.

However, I have been in remission for 6 years, during which I am free of the drugs and treatments that destroyed the cancer. Just as spring is a time of rebirth and rejuvenation, so my body healed and became strong.

The warm summer days and sunshine filled me with Vitamin D, energy, and positivity. I became like the beautiful flowers and trees. I bloomed physically, emotionally, and spiritually. In the fall, I was like the autumn leaves, full of color and vibrancy. The coming winter season did not affect me as I had gained strength and fortitude to face whatever storm or cold days might appear. This season of fall, I smile with joy at each autumn flower.
