Life Really Does Take Strange Turns.....
Have thought a lot the last couple of days about Peter who just discovered he has a huge tumor in his throat - it feeds off an artery and will cause him to choke any day. Death so fast so unexpected - no health warning. In control of a trucking business one day and death sentenced the next.
Makes one realize that every day is so important. No time for anger, resentment. No time not to forgive anyone for some miserable misunderstanding. Every minute must be filled with genuine love, compassion and concern for all around. Family is everything. Looking into your chuildren's eyes and telling them how much they mean to you; in your heart there is a special section just for each of them. The great pride , we feel as parents, for their accomplishments. The value they have brought into our existence. The powerful joy we share as we all laugh together at work!! (We all work together in the same office- how grand is that?)
Remembering to tell our parents, elderly though they be, just how precious they are. We appreciate the wealth of knowledge and experience they have to share.
I am so blest! I have fantastic Health, a very precious and wonderful husband, five beautiful children to whom I gave birth and two gorgeous adult children we adopted. Nine delightful grand children.
Dear God, thank you for the Everest of blessings I behold every day!!
