Tonight, not being able to sleep again. I reached over to check the time on my iphone. As what normally happens on my iphone something other than what I expected comes up on the screen. Which this time was ok. It was a saved website that I had not gotten around to looking at yet, but since I was not sleeping, I took the time to read what I could on that huge iphone screen. What caught my eye was a blog posting of a friend of mine that I have not seen in over twenty years. Christopher had done some ride time with us on the ambulance to create a video for the company as an advertisement. Great video, long story, bad ending. So I had lost touch with Chris until this year and we have been playing phone tag and still have not been able to talk yet. I read the blog entry that came up and was so touched that I had to bring it up here. I am going to put the link here and encourage everyone to read his blog. Here is an excerpt from one of his postings where he is talking about Babe his dog that had just passed away:
"I don’t know what’s going to happen next, none of us does. What I do know is that life is abundant with miracles if we are present to recognize them. Usually they occur right under our noses. It doesn’t feel that way at the moment, yet Babe taught me by her living example to be In the present. Trust in the Unseen, to be Fearless even when afraid, Love unconditionally, and most of all to suit up, show up and do your job. Do the next thing. Thats was all you had to concern yourself with in Babe’s opinion, and she walked her talk. Do the next thing. Keep your word. Lets get going. That’s what Babe would say to me now."
Chris I hope we catch up soon.
