This morning I found out that a friend, not a real close friend, but a friend all the same, passed away yesterday. Cancer. People who knew Micheal realized that this day would come, eventually. Knowing that something inevitable is going to happen never makes it any easier to understand or put into perspective when it finally does happen. Shortly after hearing the news, I was reading a touching email written by his wife and the house became very quiet. Quiet, but yet full of thoughts and images and prayers and things that you keep in your head to make sure the rest of your mind stays busy. I fetched the mail and realized that the envelope on the top of the pile was a request for donations from the Canadian Cancer Society. I don’t know if that made the earlier news any more poignant or not.
