"All things are fleeting-- even sorrow, even pain.
Replete with the knowledge of death,
you will find that you have the strength to survive anything,
because, in surviving, you still have life.
Something can always be built from there."
Michelle Belanger

So true where there is life there is always a future. Maybe for birth there must also be death.
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa, I was just thinking the same thing today,that when a babie is born a person must die. Great minds think alike. You should write a book about that.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I will.
ReplyDeleteMy grandad died of a heart attack two days before I had open heart surgery as a baby, he was a catholic and was praying for me when he died, my granny always said that god took him to save me. (My poor mother what a week!)I would like to see some truth in that, I know I would die for my children if I had to.
Sorry about your grandad. I think granny might have been right though. Your grandad loved you very much.
ReplyDeleteI would die for my children as well. They mean the world to me.
Thank you Vivienne.Hope you are well:-)
