I had a productive session in my morning program today. I only have a weeks left.
Winter made a return appearance last night. The outdoor world is cloaked in a layer of wet snow. It was one of those beautiful snowfalls in which there was very little wind. The snow is clinging to everything outside.
I heard some news earlier that caused me to nearly gasp with sadness. The nephew of a good friend of mine unexpectedly passed away. I saw a picture of this newly deceased man on Facebook. His wife is pregnant and due in May. That child will never have the opportunity to meet his father in this life. A picture of my friend's nephew was posted with the story of his passing. He has an awesome smile in the picture. I find it so sad to think that his child will never bask in the brightness of his smile.
The world doesn't make sense. It never has made sense. I don't think we can wrap our rational minds around losses like these. They defy explanation. And yet the heart, in its vast depths, must always reach for love.
