Well, what can I say? It's been a very humbling week so far. Just heard that a family member of mine has cancer. When I was told about it, I was shocked, to say the least. All this after this summer, when one of my closest friend's mother passed away after a long and arduous battle with it. This morning, I heard that another's father has just passed away, just a couple of days before Thanksgiving. My heart and prayers go out to all of those who have lost loved ones. I want everyone who reads this to do me a favor: give someone a hug today. You never know what kind of battle they might be fighting. I know it helps me, and I think that everyone could use some love sometimes, especially now, during the beginning of the holiday season, when people are supposed to be happy and relaxed. It kills me to hear that others have the misfortune to have lost loved ones, no matter what time of year it is. I have lost my share, as I'm sure others have to. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Now, and always.
I'm not a very religious person, but I do believe in a certain kind of balance in the universe. I think people need to feel the way they feel in reaction to certain events for a reason. Be it negative, positive, or something in between, I believe that every "feeling" is necessary for us as people to grow and mature. To become better than we are right now. Isn't that the goal that our deceased loved ones wanted for us? To be the best "us" that we can be? I believe this to be so.
Wrapping up, my sincerest wishes of good faith to all. God bless us, everyone!
