My sister and I have been estranged for two years over something neither of us can fully remember anymore. She texted me this morning out of nowhere. We talked for three hours. By the end we were laughing. I don't know why today was the day. Neither does she.

I received a cancer diagnosis on a Thursday and spent the weekend in a kind of numb terror. By Sunday I was not better, but something had shifted. I had been living my entire adult life oriented toward a future I was building — career, savings, plans. The diagnosis collapsed all of that. And in the collapse, sitting in my backyard in Tucson watching the sun go down, I had the clearest sense I have ever had of what actually mattered. Not an audible voice. Not a vision. Just clarity, sudden and total, like a room coming into focus. I am in treatment now. I am also more alive than I have been in fifteen years.
