Our sister-in-law's Mother died yesterday. She was 91. I had met her several times over the years and she always struck me as as being a wonderful lady, well-grounded in what has value in this life. She had an air of quiet dignity. She had had more than a few trials over the years, and had come through them with this equanimity....this aura of being able to handle whatever life threw her way. I think that she was probably quite religious...maybe that contributed to her peaceful demeanor.
Please pause a moment and send out your good thoughts to the universe for Elsie for a life well-lived, and for her close-knit family of children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
The meaning of life is that it ends.
Franz Kafka
I hope I am leading a well-lived life. I hope to live into my 90s or 100s, at least, and have few regrets. I hope to be eqipped to handle whatever life throws my way and to handle it with aplomb and dignity....to enjoy this cosmic dance. I will try to not become a crabby old lady with 50 rescued cats and dogs. Well, maybe we'll have just three or four.
Looking together in the same direction.
