The word of the day, NOETIC, is one of my favorite words as it can be used to describe metaphysics, or things that lay outside of what is considered to be the boundaries of accepted knowledge. I've always been a seeker of knowledge and, as a result, have always enjoyed "In Search Of" and other things that some may term the "tin foil hat" crowd. I think it is much more mature to be open to all possibilities. As much as I may have learned in my life so far, there are many things that are still unknown. Science does not explain everything since it is self-defined and is limited by even the most accurate measuring sticks mankind has ever devised. By definition, these measuring sticks are imperfect because we are not perfect.
By all accounts, my disease was so far along last year, that I "should have" died. That I have been cleared of all disease, where I had cancer in every single place, in every single organ, and in every single system in my body, is not just a testament to science. The treatments I underwent were so harsh, I could have succumbed to that alone. For whatever reason, it was not "my time" and I am here. I must make use of this time that I have been afforded, no matter the day-to-day difficulties I have to deal with and overcome.
(I yield the floor and did not mean to soliloquize.)
