As you know, we've both recently lost someone. And try as I might to accept it, I keep circling back to the shock of an unexpected death. For weeks leading up to receiving such news, I was doing some things and managing some things in my life that I can't help but now realize were preparing me. Money management, my calendar, apartment care, knocking off my to-do list at work...all preparing me so that I could deal with and travel for a funeral soon. Karen, for a while I had been trying to remember a scripture and, after the funeral, I received an unexpected note from someone I didn't even realize had my address. The scripture I'd been searching for was written inside. My heart just swelled and I simply cried. It's bittersweet that I've just visited family I hadn't all seen in years. This death of a loved one hurts but the person who passed would have been pleased. Somehow we pulled a family back together again...and God is still good. You are beautiful, my friend. I'm thinking about you. Hang in there, take care and please kiss the girls. I’ve thought about this. As you know, we’ve both recently lost someone.
