Reflective Run

I went for a 30 minute run today with lots to think about. One of my best friend's father passed away this past week and the funeral was this morning. TM was diagnozed with cancer a very short three months ago. How quickly that time passed for my friend. Today was an awesome celebration of his dad's life - including great music in which my friend accompanied the band on the drums. There were many witnesses and testaments to the life of TM - and also joy in the fact that he had accepted Jesus Christ as his savior. Someday, we'll all get back together again.

Susan and I are so blessed to still have our parents with us and so very much involved in our lives. Three months seems like a short time, but we can lose loved ones in a blink of a second. Remember to say "I love you" today, and tomorrow, and the next day. Peace.
