Isn't it a relief when we realize all our worrying never changes a thing. Finally we can let go. Holding you both in my heart and thoughts. Gratitude is a gift that soothes my days so often. You have such a beautiful spirit and approach to life, Deb.

Aaah, yes the lesson that our worry changes nothing. How often I need reminding.
No growth is such a positive, thank you, God!
And as kj says, your approach is sacred in and of itself.
Divine intervention of the heart.

If your names for him could wield swords, they would cut that cancer right out. Powerful names. Healing names. Strength giving names, and so loving.
