Best Wishes For A Friend

Today, my thoughts are with my friend Angie, who lost her mother-in-law in the fight against cancer. I didn't know her, but I know she was a kind, caring person. Visit Angie's blog for more information.

I'd just like to say that life is a fragile, delicate thing. It can bring you happiness, but it can also be ruined in an instant. So I'd like to show you all my poem commemorating life, and grieving death:

Life

Why does it come so fast,
And give you happiness
Why is taken in just an instant,
And make you grieve
Why are there so many ups,
But still so many downs
Will it ever just stay,
So you can be happy and content

Life is a roaring sea,
That will never be steady
You never know when you get,
Or when you lose
So be grateful for what you have,
And follow these words
Cherish the love
Remember the life
And always live

Oh Josh, I don't know how I missed this last week, it's absolutely beautiful and you truly are an ancient sole my dear.

It's always been such an honor to be your mom and always will be, no matter how fleeting the time.

It truly is an honor, to be part of your life Josh. I am not sure if Ancient even begins to describe you.

And guilty as charged on the spelling, sorry.
