The Fight Is Over...Goodbye, Mom

My Mother's long battle against cancer finally ended on August 18, Saturday, at 7:30pm. It is a crazy world. Cancer is so nasty. I have learned so much about life recently, that I do not want to know anymore. Please take some relief in knowing that the true measure of loving cannot be known until the final moment of parting. The biggest challenge is making sure that the final moment is not one of regret in having waited too long to say what was meaningful. Nothing is guaranteed...so don't assume that tomorrow will arrive just as today did.
In this crazy world, there is miraculous beauty all around us. The things that don't make sense yield to things that do...The Grief of Saturday has yielded a miracle of this Sunday, a new day, a brighter hope, a fresh rebirth into a cycle that repeats itself. It begins...it ends...it is hopeful and needs to be embraced.
