Life lessons aren’t always the easiest to learn and often come in the sad and heart felt experiences, but they serve to remind us of the path we travel and all that we have to be thankful for. Life is short – it is precious – it is to be lived fully.

Surely you have learned something. And even more certain that it will stay with you. The hard part is remembering that it’s there when you need it.

Lesley, you gave me goosebumps. It’s so impressive how you notice the details and intertwinings of life around you.

i always find it striking like you said, that the big things like this are what make us reevaluate. i wish i reevaluated more regularly, and not just in light of a tragedy.
i hope that you are doing okay…

Beautifully said Leslie, and hard to hold onto when life’s daily moments overwhelm us. The reminder is a good one, and the juxtaposition of death and birth that you experienced yesterday is remarkable, and all the more intense because of it.
