Life is like the game Tetris (not a box of chocolates:)

Do you know the game Tetris? You know the one… where all the different shaped blocks are falling and you have to position them to fit and make solid lines. When you make a line it disappears and all the blocks shift down accordingly.

I just realized Tetris is very much like life…

1. You always have to be one step ahead
2. Sometimes you can know what is coming but you are still not prepared for it
3. Every now and then you’ll make a wrong move
4. The trick when you make a wrong move is to just keep going, the game has changed, the path has changed but that doesn’t mean it’s over… the blocks will shift accordingly
5. The longer you play the faster it goes
6. But unlike Tetris… once the game is over you can’t start again. You only have one life.

If Cancer has taught me anything it’s that I want to make this life a GOOD ONE!  How am I doing that? I’m making changes, I am making different choices than I would have 3 years ago, I’m trying new things, new adventures, surrounding myself with life-minded people… I am putting my health first. I am making healthy choices. I for one want to live life to the fullest, I want a better QUALITY OF LIFE! I want to live LONGER and BETTER!

Quality of life. Everyone wants it, but what is it?… Click here to continue reading about how I’m going to live LONGER and BETTER
