Winning Words 2/3/09
“But all endings are also beginnings. We just don’t know it.”
(Sent by D.S. in AZ) This quote was used as part of a funeral service. So often, we focus in on the present and the past and overlook the excitement of the future. This reminder is not only for the grieving, but it’s good advice for all, when facing the everyday world. ;-) Jack

FROM CJL IN OH: That's one you should put up next to your PC. As we all should.

FROM OUTHOUSE JUDY: Well, if you believe in the Bible and Jesus' word, you do believe it. It's a wonderful message of hope! FROM JACK: Someone used the Hallelujah Chorus as the recessional hymn at a funeral service.

FROM R.I. IN BOSTON: There seems to be two sides to many of our experiences...it's how you look at it. As all endings are also beginnings, so goings are also comings, growth is also decline, living is also dying. One event sets the stage for the other, not? FROM JACK: ...and sometimes decline can be growth. Dying, for the people of G-d, is the start of living.

FROM GUSTIE M.N.: I think you wrote that one for me! I am better today.

Thank you, Lord God, for always leading me to the place where I can finally let go. Amen.
