I'd never seen fear like I did on his face, the other day in Taco John's. Death is a scary thing; Death has brought us together before. I can no longer be at the whim of my fears, I have found the courage to open myself to life, to remaining alive and feeling and growing. Yes, loss is painful; it is a scary, sad thing to think of what might have been... then, there is the realization of what Is Now and what is to be learned. Scary, but less scary than exciting; more joy than sadness. To have, to love, to share, to show, to Be in the moment creates more joy than any loss can ever take away. Be open to the miracle, it will come...

Diana, I think about all of you so often throughout the day - about your strength and joy and sadness and love.
I saw this quote the other day and thought of you:
"There is often in people to whom 'the worst' has happened an almost transcendent freedom, for they have faced 'the worst' and survived it." --Carol Pearson
It reminded me of what you're doing right now.
I love you!
