Two Weddings and a Funeral

Several years back, I witnessed the weddings of a couple of friends. One got married in 2010 and the other in 2013.  Today, I hold their babies in my arms.  That warm fuzzy feeling of new life, the promise of fresh hope, the dreams of a future yet untold.


Yes, spring is here.

And in the same moment in time, I am informed that a long-time friend has passed on, yet another victim of cancer.  Not much older than me, I wonder why her life has been cut short.

Yet that is what the seasons are all about. Spring is not just about new life.  Spring is also about renewal - of a time when the circle of life come a full turn.
