Have a great day!

Friends, Family and Loss

Picnic in a local park.

One Sunday after church several of us decided to have a picnic at one of Windsor's several parks. It was a wonderful, relaxing day and one of those times you can look back on with pleasant nostalgic memories.

Within two years from when this picture was taken, three of these people had passed on to be with Our Lord. Two of them, suddenly. This year, I lost two people in my family, an Aunt, and a cousin, both I loved dearly, and will miss.

As I look back at old photos, I think about how precious life is, and how blessed we are to have family, and friends who are family, in our lives. When I look at this picture, and the many others in my albums, I thank God for granting me fun and relaxation in my life. Remembering these days give me the strength to soldier through the hard times.

I also think of how precious life is, and after the stories on the daily news of war, bombings, massacres, and unnecessary police shootings I think, as a people, we are missing our humanity. I don't long for the 'old days', I long for something that has been missing from our culture all through the history of this world. PEACE.

Some fine ladies from my past.

Well, there's my rant for today,

Have a good and peace-filled day
