More Goodbyes

Yet another Goodbye.

Speaking to a friend she said to me that we are at the age where goodbyes are going to become more common.  Does not seem possible.

I MEAN WE ARE ONLY 45.

That is young, or so I was led to believe.

As I returned from Upstate New York where I was helping my buddy with his two young sons. The one who lost both his wife and child during childbirth just six weeks ago.

I received an email telling me that yet another friend is losing his wife as well. At this point it is just a matter of time.

These are both childhood friends.
This friends cancer has returned and is now nearing the end of her fight.

TO YOUNG TO DIE....TO YOUNG TO HAVE TO SAY GOODBYE.

So much loss in my friends and my life over the past three months.  This is the third friend who is getting ready to transition. None of them were or are old. All under 50 YEARS OLD.

There is a lesson in all of this loss.......What I get from all this loss is there are
NO GUARANTES.
WE MUST LIVE OUR LIVES FULLY AND NOT WAIT.

LIFE IS SO PRECIOUS........IT IS ABOUT NOW.

I am hoping my friends, their families and myself can find some sort of peace an comfort in the fact that these three friends shared their lives with us, and we are all better people for knowing and having them in our lives.

They are all on a wonderful new adventure.

GOD BLESS THEM ALL.

THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING A PART OF MY LIFE.

UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN.
