Would You?

Have you ever found yourself in a situation so powerful and devastating that you would give anything just to be able to help? Where you would give your left right arm for some information, any information, good or bad, just some kind of an indication as to which direction it's going to go?  Where your daughters are hurting so badly that you cancel everything in your life and scoop them up and bring them home to help them get from one minute to the next? Where the only thing you can think of to do is to bake? Because it's something, it's a gesture more than just your thoughts and your regrets and some words thrown out to the wind? Where you think to yourself, not now, not yet, it's too soon there's still some things that might have been said even though I've already grieved you what I thought was completely but maybe not so utterly complete?  Where the uncertainty is so palpable you think it might strangle you?

It's dark, I know. But it's what we've been living and this is the only way I can talk about it.

Here. and now. That's all there is. And you. and me.

And what if you knew the end date would you live your life any differently? Here. and now?

Would you?

Thinking of you Cath---I'm worried about you. I'm sorry for whatever you're going through---and wish I could help---because I would love to.

Cath, family is what matters most. Whatever is happening, thinking of you all. I'll be in town next Monday and Tuesday. If you need anything, please holler and I will come find you.

Gosh Cath, I hope everything is ok. Thinking of you! To answer your question, yes, I think a lot of people would live their life differently if they knew there was an end date. (or when it was). Hugs x
