No Regrets If Today Is The Last

Our beloved Canine son, Carter, our 11-year old Yellow Lab, is very sick.

What started a few weeks ago, appearing to be the a routine distraction from food – a neighbor’s pet in heat – has manifested itself into complications we may not recover from. Cancer.

While our hearts are breaking, they are not completely shattered. Big difference.

We have no regrets with Carter. We have given and received all there is and was, to give and receive.

Peace and blessings. Faith, Hope and Love.

Life. Death.

Trust in the Lord with all our heart, all our mind, and all our strength.

And then cry like a baby, until we can no longer stay awake.

Do you have days where you think, “It’s just too difficult”? We all do.

What’s the solution? One solution is to look around and realize there will always be someone who makes your challenges like amateurish.

Doug Landis was a high school wrestler, until a wrestling injury left him a quadriplegic.

His brother said he was watching too much TV and presented a challenge to draw and placed a pencil in his mouth.

We are all here for a reason. What is not obvious, is what we are here for. We must discover this on our own.

What do you think? If you know this to be false, will you help the rest of us understand?
