Statuses

In my opinion, to be with someone in their final moment is the greatest honor and blessing.

And just like that, she’s gone…

Life is measured in moments.

Say the things you have to say. Do the things you have to do. Be the one you wish to be. Now. It’s all we ever have.

This seems the perfect time to remind you that youare going to die. You don’t know when. Death has its own schedule. All we have is right now.

Today we had planned to work on getting our finances in order for the end of the year.

Then we received news about a dear friend close to death in the hospital.

Now, we are by her side.

Each moment is a blessing. Do the best with it you can.

The kid is away on a school trip which means a midweek date night with my quick-witted wife.

I’ve been an increasing fan of young Billie Eilish’s music. My daughter and I were discussing her in the car last night. How much she reminds us of Lorde (who we also like) who also began her rise to stardom very young.

This video… Wow.
