When there are no words.....

My soul aches tonight as I type. My sweet friend has a mass on her colon and liver, and they are not sure if it is cancer or not, and she is only in her mid-forties (as if age makes any type of cancer better). I don't have the words. I simply don't. The older I get, the more I think I don't understand anything anymore. Take nothing for granted. Live every day to the fullest. Rejoice in the fact that you can breathe, love, and laugh. Those phrases all seem somewhat hollow and empty in the face of suffering and pain.


Evelyn - you're in my thoughts and prayers. May God give you peace in this situation. Know that your friends love and cherish you, even when we don't have the words........
