So, this is where I post my thoughts, whether they are worthy, or if anyone wants to see them.
Today, a dear lady I know is laying in a hospital bed, knowing that she is dying. But, she tells everyone, she is ready and almost happy that she will see those she misses "on the other side."
So, I am melancholy for her passing that is to come, but jubilant that she will be released from pain and this shell that fails us, ultimately. Much like my own mother, this lady has not complained or been a burden to anyone through her illness of over six months. She continues to laugh and her good spirit shines through. May we all have this strength at the end and this assuredness of what is beyond our sight...
