- What it would be like to live a life without suffering?
- What would it be like not to fear?
- Never to be alone?
- Never to have to say goodbye to someone you love?
- Never to have to wait to realize a dream?
- Never to worry?
- Never to fail?
- Never to know sickness?
Yeah, then I return to reality. To the knowledge that each of these discomforts have driven me to seek HIS face with passion and urgency. And I reluctantly thank HIM for this hard path.
And ask HIM to come. Soon. But not 'til I learn to rejoice in all circumstances.

Here I sit as the Relay for Life teams walk in the park next to us, and I've just got off the phone with a college friend of mine who in his late 40s has cancer that somehow got from his eye as a melanoma 10 years ago, been cancer free all that time, now has it spread to his liver and NO TREATMENT is to be found. Not even clinical trials - his blood work isn't right. Has four kids the oldest being 15. Don't know if he'll still be around in early July when I know we can go visit. Has all us friends freaked out! It's really difficult to know how to deal with this other than pray for him and his family...
