"Laura Linney has credited her series The Big C with teaching her a lot about herself. The Big C returns for a fourth and final season next week and will bring to a close the story of a woman who finds personal freedom after being diagnosed with cancer.  Linney discussed the end of The Big C with Parade and acknowledged that playing a cancer patient taught her some very valuable lessons. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s given me time to think about the challenges and sweetness of life, which is why I wanted to do this series in the first place,&amp;quot; she explained.  &amp;quot;Not that I have any more answers than I did before! I do feel much more peaceful about ageing. I consider ageing to be a privilege that not everybody gets, and I&amp;#039;m grateful for where I am.&amp;quot; Linney also revealed that she will likely take a hiatus from acting once The Big C ends its televised run. &amp;quot;I just want to go to the country and stick myself in nature for a while,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m very much a city kid, but I want to watch the flowers come up and be around trees, to see life come roaring back.&amp;quot; The Big C premieres its final season on Monday, April 29 on Showtime.
