ryn: Friday, October 20th, 2006 will be our wedding day! Time will be 6:30 pm if you’d like to send a prayer our way! (And one that I won’t wobble down the aisle in high heels that I’m unaccustomed to!) Our new life together begins then – I am marrying my latin lover, the man of my heart and dreams – how blessed am I?!!!! Hugs,

Just read your entry….I think it takes time to process a chunk of reality that huge. And only you can do it for yourself – no one else can. But many can lend you strength and support and love beyond love… One day, I may help with hospice stuff at the hospital -there is such a strong need. Love,

we don’t have a choice, its something there is no point in not accepting! Sorry! We all do die, thats the reality! But the sad bit is for those left behind that will miss you. The thing is to make your living count!!!! hugs P

Do you have any choice about dying? I’d say no. So what good would it do anyone to “not” accept it? It’s a waste of time when people sit around stewing about something they have absolutely no choice whatsoever about. There are so many other things the person could be thinking about instead….like how to best spend one’s time living! hugs, Weesprite

Well I don’t want to accept it either and I don’t like getting old and knowing each day my life is shorter. I know its something we have no choice over but I sure don’t like it. Seems like just yesterday I was young and strong. Now I get closer to the grave everyday but I will go fighting it all the way.I do not like being old and hurting everyday. I sure wish I could turn back the clock and be 21again.

I suppose that’s where the wisdom part of the Serenity Prayer comes in… to accept the things I cannot change. I’m going to die. Period. And that’s not necessarily a bad thing, if one considers the alternative. Living forever. If you had that choice, would you really want to?

You don’t accept it, you fight it kicking and screaming all the way. Yeah, sure, it’s going to happen, but I’m going to make sure to have a blast and enjoy every millisecond. I’m hoping that this is a rhetorical question.

Easy — enjoy now and let what come, come! I accept it all….:-)
