Loss, Love and Life
Thursday, February 18, 2016 at 9:41AM I am back. Back to my little piece of the blogosphere here. Back to my life of dog loving, lanai sitting with my face to the sun and being surrounded by the warmth, love and support of my family and oh so special friends. I have once again survived what could have been a health catastrophe and perhaps my death. I have stopped asking myself "Why Me?" Not "Why did this happen to Me?", but rather "Why am I so fortunate to have the aneurysm found during a search for something else?"
I lost my formal religion a long time ago. I was raised a Congregationalist and loved my church. I don't know what happened to my belief or where it went. The 'Whys?' of that don't matter much now either. For me the ideas of Faith and Grace, Forgiveness and Love remain in the beauty of Nature and the beauty and love of the people who surround me. There is a reason all of this is given to me. There doesn't need to be a scientific formula or explanation for any of it. I guess this is what some call "God." What better way to show gratitude and some personal expression of Faith that this world will keep on keeping on than this gorgeous Scottish medley of Amazing Grace and Fight Song...
