Heard on sports radio yesterday morning (can't remember which station) Brian Billick, on Bill Belichick: "It's not just what you know but what you can impart to others that matters." (Billick was impressed with how Belichick does just that with his players.)
Not necessarily earth-shattering but I found it an interesting observation. I was struck by the truth involved in that statement, its relevance to so many endeavors, on so many levels. Knowledge or learning- including experience- that cannot be or is not shared with others, that cannot be or is not offered to others, is useless. Worth pondering...
I received some good news on the medical front this morning. I had a CT scan done yesterday and one of my oncologists notified me this morning of the results; no new growths or tumors were detected, and all of the existing tumors had shrunk appreciably in size since my last CT scan back before starting chemo. From what they tell me shrinkage is the best possible outcome of several (there could have been new tumors, the existing tumors could have grown in size, or there could have been no change.) So apparently the chemo is having the desired effect so far. While it doesn't change the ultimate prognosis- unfortunately my cancer is deemed incurable- it is positive news nonetheless. Just as importantly, I feel fine- feel great actually- physically, so in that regard the cancer really hasn't affected me so far.
I've yet to watch any of this yet but it is Must See TV for me:
