Excellent story. Reminder to live life in the moment of every second of every day. To always love and. To be gentle and kind and most importantly to forgive. The healing comes after forgiveness and accepting the things that are out of our control.

Thank you, Tom! I do feel like my voice is starting to "solidify" a little, and it makes me want to write some stuff that has a little more depth. Hard to do consistently, but I'll give it a whirl.
