And so there I was sitting in the car with two basketball kakis when they started horsing around about the possibility of death during one of their training (they are both air force helicopter pilots). I was duly concerned of course but they clarified that the training has no casualties yet so it's (supposely) very safe.
This led me to recall an oldie song "If tomorrow never comes". Indeed, what if tomorrow never comes? Everyday is a blessing, a gift, thus the present is truly as its name implies: a gift. Always give thanks for every moment, every encounter for who knows, the next moment may just be your last. I once walked the valley of death 3 years ago when I was in and out of the hospital every few months or so. Truly we are so not in control but He is. Handover all burdens we have to Him for without Him, we are truly nothing.
And then again, should I say what I really feel now, is it His Will? There is not much time left before the departure. Pray give me wisdom and light the best path that You have prepared lest I deviate from Your most beautiful plan. Amen.
