So I am down in Tampa as I type this. Bryan dropped me off at the airport where I meet with two co-workers who had a car ready for me to rent. One of my co-workers told me that another co-worker wouldn't be coming because of a personal family loss. I didn't take in the loss part. I said well I know Connie told me her boyfriend was having back surgery on Friday. Harley said ya he passed away during the surgery. I couldn't believe it. My heart sank. The day has not been the same since. I have thought so much about her and this new horrible situation she has been thrust into. Oh how my heart ached the whole drive down.
Losing a loved one is hard enough with gospel knowledge but what horror it must be like to not have that assurance. I just wanted to hug her and tell her it will be okay. I promise! The only thing for her that will make it better is time. The hurt isn't so sharp after a few years.
So hug your family extra tight tonight. Life is just to short!
