Peace

I just read Chasing Daylight by Eugene O'Kelly. He was a CEO when he was diagnosed with advanced, inoperable brain cancer. He was given about three months to live. In the time that remained, he chose to be very intentional about embracing life and showing his family and friends what they meant to him. He embraced what was happening to him, instead of running away from it. The book gave me some peace about what is happening to my Dad. It gave me some peace about my own mortality too. And a sense of how to embrace the moment.
