unfolding . . . Mood
Wednesday, December 3, 2008
As life unfolds before me its diversity and sameness both conflict and blend.   Recently a mentor and friend of 25 years passed.   He was  strong,  wise and compassionate to all.  A man who was always willing to help whenever and wherever someone needed him.  He would pass on  knowledge to whomever inquired.  Family man.  Professional.  This man was truly a peaceful warrior and everyone will remember him as such.   He told me that he had gone through  tx twice over a 15 year period and thought it was behind him.   But the dragon resurfaced and he required a liver transplant.  He received a new liver.  After nothing less than an heroic battle, complications overcame.   He was 58.   I write this story mostly because I needed to, for myself if nothing else.  And because Daily Strength affords me a place to be,  and it helps.   Other than that I would add  that this story is unusual, in that surgery is usually positive.   So I will stay positive and keep faith in God.  I highly recommend the same to everyone.
