My Experience with Cancer

A very dear friend was diagnosed with cancer. He’s an extroadinary human being loved by many for so many reasons… His talent, his wisdom, his humor, his old soul, his way with words, his tremendously loving heart, and his open arms…what I think we all love about him is the way he makes us feel about ourselves. He has the gift of intstilling faith, hope, and love in others, bringing people together in this world and making them feel at home. He makes people feel like they can acheive anything and overcome anything. And for all of those reasons I, along with so many others, cherish him. He is my friend. He is my brother. He is a survivor. He is Joshua Snyder.

Hobbies

My family, my fiance Josh!, My basset Shayna, reading, learning, staying positive, taking risks, thinking outside of the box, animals,taking pictures of other people’s dogs (weird, I know), making others smile! (one of my favorites)working out, eating healthy, and staying fit.

Words of Wisdom

“You must match their boldness” My Aunt Lilly said this before I was born. She was a strong woman and has definintely passed this down from generation to generation.

Know Me

There are far too many facets to my complicated persona to give you one straight answer on this whole “about me” section so I’ll show you one side at a time. Here’s my “Woody Allen trapped in a 26 year old female” side. If there were a movie called “The Constant Worrier” I would be the star. Of course this fim would probably be a made-for-tv-film on either the WE Channel, Oxygen, or worse…Lifetime. There’s nothing scarier than a made for tv movie on the Lifetime Channel. As far as I’m concerned it’s more terrifying than any Steven King Film. It always leaves you feeling lost, scared, and unarmed for life’s uncertainties in that “it could happen to you” sense. Oh, and something else you should know…I go off on tangents: please see above.
Here are the facts: I’m in Advertising; a profession I find fascinating yet boring, exhilarating yet exhausting, complicated yet simplistic, and all in all a huge contradiction to itself in an incredibly creative way of course… This has been a huge growth opportunity for me both personally and professionly. GROWTH in general is something I believe in wholeheartedly. I am definitely a work in progress and feel I have just barely opened my eyes on this long journey we call life.
I’ll keep you posted :)
