Is it only snakes you’ve lost interest in being scared of? This point about shifting and coiling to meet the shape of our experiences I am finding fascinating. In a funny way this cancer experience has emboldened me and I’ve also lost interest in being scared of certain things.

That is a great question. I think the other thing I'm for sure not interested in being afraid of anymore is earnestness. Cancer does a good job of making snark and cynicism seem silly as well. But I'll have to think on it some more!
