This week I was faced with saying goodbye, some anticipated and some unexpected.
Either way goodbyes are never easy.
Earlier this week Val's time here had come to an end and he needed to head home to Rio.
It has been really great hosting him and having him revisit my family and stay with me over these past four months. He, I will see again next year. I look forward to his return.
PEOPLE COME AND GO. That is just the way life is. If we are so lucky we all will cross paths again.
The second set of goodbyes was completely unexpected, and very hard to wrap my mind around and understand. The question that I asked over and over again is
WHY???????????? WHY?????????
After my morning walk yesterday on what was a beautiful fall morning. When I returned home I sat at my computer and received a phone call from a friend in Los Angeles with some very upsetting news.
She had asked me if I had read our mutual friends face book page. I said I had not. She than preceded to tell me that our friend Charlie's baby died during childbirth. I was shocked. That was not all. Shortly after the baby died his wife Gia also died.
I said to her what are you talking about. I than opened his face book page to have this very sad and tragic news confirmed in 2 status updates.
I was crushed to have read this news. It is SENSELESS. My poor friend is devastated as are his friends and family.
LIFE IS PRECIOUS
We never know when our time is up. This is why it is so important to LIVE IN THE MOMENT. LIVE FOR THE NOW.
Yesterday a beautiful, healthy, vibrant young woman and her unborn, full term and healthy son were taken for reasons we will never know.
One thing that I do know is that Charlie and his sons will be forever guided by the spirits of both
GIA and SAMSON.
Better know now as CHARLIE'S ANGELS
BE KIND, HELP ONE ANOTHER, SHARE YOUR GIFT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT AND LOVE
R.I.P GIA & BABY SAMSON
