Once Michael Douglas overcomes cancer, he wants to take a new lease on life and travel the world with his family.
“Once we’re through this, Catherine and I are talking about taking the kids out of school for a year and travelling around the world – Phuket and Vietnam; we’d love to take the family down to New Zealand and spend some time in South Africa. We’re still trying to figure out what age you can get away with taking the kids away from their friends and not have them hate you for it.├óΓé¼┬¥
Continued Michael:
“From now on I’m going to spend all my efforts on the people I’m closest to. When you’re younger you are so self-involved, self-obsessed. As you get older, all of a sudden, you begin to appreciate relationships, be understanding about the foibles of life, more forgiving – and you’ve got more time for the kids. It makes for a much happier marriage and family environment.”
Despite how terrible it is to go through cancer, his new perspective on life is inspiring. We can all learn something from it!
