Serendipity
Quite a long time ago, I came across this blog, an account written by a dying man.
It seemed quite extraordinarily moving.
Lost the link and found it again.
Still extraordinary, still moving and he still writes.
Self-centred creature that I am, it's not often that I feel humbled.

Oh my......
Mig--would you believe me if I told you I stumbled onto a dying man's blog near a week ago myself?
Self centered creature that *I* am--I've returned daily for the reminders of what's truly important today.
And it's that I LIVE--cuz today's a gift I don't want to close my eyes to.
Serendipity.......
It all fits together in the pieces of the puzzle--perfectly.....
Mig~ Thank you for the link, I found myself trapped there for hours...bopping back in between phone calls, supper & such. I didn't leave any comments & its weird because I found a great many of his posts to be profound, touching & normally I chatter. I'll have to bookmark & go back again. He should know that his words are valued. Thank you.
I love this bit:
"how simple.. to form a bond... as our relationship is based on the unconditional... others for which I struggle to grasp and maintain have that which has always made me turn around and walk in another direction"
That's amazing Mel. I hope if I end up in any similar situation that I'll be able to be as truthful and courageous as Eric Lane.
Hi Skinnylittleblonde. Nice to see you :)
I have left one comment on Eric's blog, just to say I've been reading it but I don't know that I can say anything much to someone like him. Inevitably I think in his situation his view is becoming increasingly inward...I felt as though I'd be a stranger intruding. But like you, I did want him to know that the stranger was touched.
It's so rare to have an unconditional relationship I. Yes, I found that whole post very moving.
