Life on Life's terms...
Permalink  
 


 

 

A week or so ago my brother passed away from cancer.  He fought the good fight and then went into the locker room.  Not long after my  family  and I had dinner and discussed "were we come from" and of course the dynamics and destruction of such diseases including alcoholism and drug addiction were discussed as important to the younger ones coming up to take our places...Yesterday noon I was at the hospital with the same family welcoming the first day participation of our newest great grand daughter...I was there smiling; my son was there smiling; my grandson was there smiling like crazy, his daughter was there smiling and the newest sister was sleeping it all off.  What a trip to watch eh?  Is this no part of HP's will?   I'm listening.   (((hugs)))smile

If I had had that one ounce to much in 1974 I would not be in this post. ...just smiling.smile

One life passes, one begins ... ... ... I now pray to observe and remember the journey ... I am beginning to realize that my life is actually made up of many others, over time ... 

 

I think we are all 'part of the whole' ... (universe)
