Make a difference and give 100%…
February 16th, 2007 by robin
I have just finished reading a book about the Tour De France, an annual bike race that is the most physically demanding sporting event in the world. It is known around the world as the race which Lance Armstrong has won an amazing seven times, after he had overcome advanced testicular cancer. It is the stuff of sporting legend, his example and fightback has inspired millions, and I am sure will continue to do so for a long, long time to come.
As a cancer survivor myself, I share one outlook on life with others who have thought that they may die sooner than later. Which is give 100% to whatever you do no matter how humble or dull it may appear to others, time is precious and at the end of life I will have no regrets, I embrace all that life offers, and always look for the positive.
I believe our lives will not be remembered by the wealth we accumulate, or the talents we have, but by the difference we make and the moments we create for ourselves and others. My short visit to India has given me a chance to reconnect with that belief.
