Yesterday a friend died from cancer. She was 41. There is no way my words can do her justice. There are many tragic elements when a young person dies: the lost potential, the many friends left behind. But the saddest element to me is when the parents outlive their children.
In this case both parents attended their child when she died. Parents should not have to bury their children. That is the greatest tragedy.
So hug your loved ones twice tonight. Remember it is the relationships we make that enrich our lives, not the accomplishments we obtain.
