The seven-forever-girl poem I just peeked at here, yours fits right in to follow it. A friend of mine I found out yesterday has advanced cancer of the pancreas which has spread to other organs and into his bones. He and his wife are taking steps to close his life here on earth. Rearranging his refrigerator. So sad, he is younger than me, a fellow deacon, and member of a care and share group that Mrs. Jim and I have taken responsibility to lead. And we are just about ready to be out of pocket for an extended time. That I couldn't have extended his life though might be a way to think but still I would have been around as a friend. Perhaps he'd have likened me as a Job-like friend? I think he will have died before I can see him again. He has followed his script better than I so his refrigerator stands fairly well arrayed. <br />Say a prayer for him and his BFF Mrs. Bill if you would please. None of us know when the play will finish, most don't know how it will end. Bill knows more that most for his. <br />And please have a Happy Thanksgiving. All but one of our kids and his kids and grands have left town so Mrs. J and I have plans to take a widow lady to our La Madeleine restaurant to lunch. Again, TMI, words kept coming.<br />..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3074509503476824621.post-73202782097411287532019-11-27T23:42:35.205-05:002019-11-27T23:42:35.205-05:00There is a kind of peacefulness in the thought tha...There is a kind of peacefulness in the thought that our life is scripted.

Of course, that's living, too, and probably in the script--which of us ask the questions, which of us don't. I enjoyed very much how this poem made me think.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05723639294340760325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3074509503476824621.post-78381255860027860952019-11-27T21:21:22.438-05:002019-11-27T21:21:22.438-05:00At the end of our journey, have we fulfilled our p...At the end of our journey, have we fulfilled our purpose?

We are usually filled at some points, with an urge to change or improve that which we have been given..A longing might be where we seek to find that other place for our soul, to take root..Eileen T O'Neill .....https://www.blogger.com/profile/03325632298717325699noreply@blogger.com
