It has been a week since my last post. So much prayer, so little time to write. I returned from Italy to a weekend celebrating the life of a long time friend who died after a month-long cancer diagnosis.
I am aware that I’m not saying anything new in writing that something so personal brings forth the preciousness, fragility and sanctity of life. The commonness of feelings and how I articulated them, however, doesn’t take away from the profundity of it. When a friend dies, we are conscious that the meaning of these words is beyond any meaning articulated by words. What I know, all I can say is that it is all about God.
