And then it is over. Suddenly it comes to a screeching halt. It always comes back to what my mother used to say….man plans and GOD laughs.
Grand schemes. High hopes. Clever moves. But then either an illness, or nature's shift or an accident or your life's choices making you irrelevant in the journey that others are on. Those others being the ones who make your life matter.
I remember being in pre-op. Away from home. It was serious time. Yet home came with me. From all parts of the country home came with me.
We had a good talk. A candid talk. A meaningful talk.
Gifts come in strange packages.
Choose not to be a one trick pony. Choose to be larger than that. Choose to be part of the lives of the important ones in your life's journey.
An ageless experiment.
