Feeling thankful for the healing beauty of Monterey Bay.
Today I heard news that someone I care about was diagnosed with cancer. She gets added to a list of people that I know who are on journeys with cancer or serious illness. I listen to the struggles that they all share, treatments are brutal, people don't know what to say and they all have fear to different degrees. They also all have courage, heart, hope and most important the love of other people. I'm always here if needed, I have lots of paying forward to do.
I again want to say thank you for all the love Phil and I received while he was on his journey. I learned many lessons from the people who took the journey with us, thank you.
It isn't the words that are important, it is another soul being there. You can't fix it with words although a kind, "I'm sorry you are having to go through this", seemed to calm Phil. Just knowing someone is there next to you can help quell fear. Each card, act of love and prayer was appreciated. Each helped us make it through some very difficult days. Thank you for the time that you gave us, the dearest gift of all. Time out of your lives to listen, hug and reassure us was a priceless gift to us.
The beauty of the bay and then a nap.
For Phil
I can close my eyes and remember what your hugs felt like.
The warmth, the love and the comfort all exist in my mind's eye.
I can use my imagination to bring back the memories and love, they are all gifts that you left me.
