So far so good. 😉
I can not complain. Yesterday I found out my boys are much smarter than me (I?…) with amazing report cards and Ryan did a fine job at his opening performance of Johnny B. Goode. I’ve been having great conversations with my parents and this morning I even managed to make it to the Young Adult Bible study that I am supposed to be leading but due to family obligations have failed to make the last two sessions. (Hence my guilt with doing both jobs at 50%)
I will not waste this time with family. And praying the rosary daily in accordance for the novena for Joseph Stanton has awakened my senses even deeper to how precious each moment is. At the same time I receive consolation in knowing that every relationship we cultivate here on earth is continued in Heaven. Family and friends. And to think, in heaven there is no jealousy, gossiping, hurt feelings, miscommunication, competition, or ethnic or financial class segregation! 😉
To think about all those I love here and what it is I love about them and then to know that we will get to have all of our ‘best’ glorified in heaven gives me a new peace of mind when the edge of fear of death arises for those we love.
Sometimes it’s all about changing perspective.
