There are times . . .

Some days seem to just be days and then others seem to have an impact on many days. When people look back on important days in their lives they are at times drawn to the days or times of impact. The funny thing about this is that I have rarely heard anyone talk about the times they went to a theme park or a the best car they ever had rather, what people remember are other people in their lives. Strange isn't it? The things we seem to strive for and live for are not what many think are worth it when we realize we are about to lose it all. Of the tens of people I have seen or attended as they died, most of them were not very pleased with themselves or their situations. The most interesting thing is that those who die with joy seem to be looking forward to something good. They are not only looking back with a sense of loss and forward with a sense of fear but they also have a great sense of hope for the future.
