10 Million Smiles Happiness Tour

After discovering that Stage 4 Colon Cancer wanted to hitch a ride in my body, I knew life would be different. I did not want to do the same things that most people were doing. I saw fighting cancer as a negative, so decided to dance with it instead. That’s what this trip is all about – getting into a dance with cancer and turning it into as much of a positive as possible while collecting 10 million smiles! Spreading smiles, being positive, and living a life of joy are some of my things. This is an extension of a 2,000-mile walk I took in 2011to spread smiles and show people that no matter what happens in life, you are allowed to smile and be happy!

 This is the van I will be driving across America. I will be living my bucket list while spreading smiles! I have started the drive by visiting a couple of towns already! I am blogging about the places I visit and the people I meet. I have no idea where this adventure will take me, how it will be funded or what is going to happen. All I know is that this is a big part of what I am doing to dance with cancer! Stay strong, be safe and keep smiling! Please join me in this amazing dance to dip and throw cancer as far away from me as I can! 

​As many of you know, I am in a dance with Stage 4
colon cancer. Here is a sneak peek at my upcoming
book:

A Dance with Cancer: A Journey of Life

This is a true story

Within the pages of this book, you will discover that not everything that you read, is what you think it is. This book will challenge your mind and have you re-thinking what is possible. You will be taken on a journey that will have you scratching your head with wonder and amazement. You will uncover stories that defy the natural laws of nature. And you will come to understand, that living in this world is one thing, experiencing and reshaping the world is a totally different animal.

Join me on a walk of 2,000 miles where the impossible is weaved into the very fabric of each story. This book is where dreams are created, it’s where Alice in wonderland meets the Matrix. Are you willing to go down the rabbit hole? Or take the blue pill and discover things you never thought possible? Sometimes the real world is stranger than fiction and that is what you will find here. So go on purchase the book and see for yourself what life can really hold for you when you believe in yourself.

Here is a taste of one of the chapters called

"Guns and Lighting"

One of the most challenging parts of walking over a thousand miles is that the weather is unpredictable; you never know what it’s going to do.
 
On June 27, 2011, I left the small town of Wilmar, N. C. I was on my way to Little Washington, N. C., a mere 30 miles away. As I was walking, a large black storm cloud was rolling in from the east and I was thinking to myself, “I’m going to get soaked today,” which wasn’t so bad after all of the heat I have had to endure, so I kept walking.
 
It didn’t take long for me to start hearing the rumbling of thunder overhead and when the lightning show started, my thoughts quickly shifted to, “Ok, Eddy, get your butt inside fast!”
Funny how quickly bolts of lightning can change your mind! I had passed a tractor store not too far back, so I turned around and high-tailed it to shelter. As soon as my feet hit the floor in the tractor store, it started raining cats and dogs. I was just in time to avoid a good soaking! Lightning was flashing all over the place.
There was no way this would be my first night under the stars! I knew I did not want to sleep outside in weather like this and besides that, I didn’t have camping gear. I needed a ride. Luckily for me, the owner was inside. She invited me into her office and we had a nice conversation. Like everyone else, she wanted to know what was up with that crazy cart. I shared the story of the walk for happiness and that I had yet to sleep under the stars; I also threw in the fact that I didn’t even have camping gear. No worries, she said, “We have camping gear you can buy; it will keep you dry and it even has a top so you don’t have to see the stars!”
Then she smiled.

People ask me why I do this.

I have a passion for awakening the fire that drives people to want to do more and be more in their lives! It is my belief that as we grow in our own lives, it becomes our responsibility to help others grow in their lives. We do this by sharing what we have learned freely and with no thought of a favor in return. When we do this, the rewards we receive are beyond anything we could ask for! Speaking and sharing my stories allows me to be the change that I want to see in my life and the world.

Being a motivational speaker is something that came easily for me due to my positive nature. A virtue that has been tested in my life several times. I experienced many traumatic situations over the years. I overcame a life-threatening cerebral hemorrhage, I had a dance with stage 4 cancer and I suffered the loss of my oldest daughter. These moments can be extremely tragic and difficult to handle for most people. It feels like the world is tearing a hole in your heart and soul, finding your way back to a happy place can feel like an impossible challenge.

I consider myself a happiness ambassador. Spreading happiness and a positive attitude is the reason why my motivational speaking has allowed me to touch so many people in very positive ways. I can provide a valuable contribution to corporate events and motivational rallies with my own personal experiences. The idea is to stimulate an emotional burst of energy that helps people get back on track – a truly motivating force that is driven and fueled by genuine emotions. That is my gift as a speaker, to give people the chance to have that experience.
