Cancer Truth Note: #308
The more we share our stories, the more we share our gifts and learn from the gifts of others.
In cancer truth #307 I mentioned the invisible gifts that we all have. Those things we walk around doing with little effort, where someone else says, “Oh my goodness how do you do that?!?” Everyone has things they excel at and things they should just hire someone else to do!
The more we share the story of our cancer journey the more we can share how our gifts helped us and learn from how others used their different gifts to help them. By sharing stories and comparing notes we learn new strategies and maybe even more about our own gifts through the eyes of someone else.
Have you shared your story? Have you recognized the gifts of others through their story?
