If only we did all live our lives as he so elequantyl put it:
"pursue what you enjoy, and what stimulates your mind, as much as possible — so you can be ready for opportunities, as well as not be disappointed when things go sideways, as they inevitably do"

I was doing okay until I got to this part:
"Airdrie, you were my best friend and my closest connection. I don't know what we'd have been like without each other, but I think the world would be a poorer place. I loved you deeply, I loved you, I loved you, I loved you"
How on earth do you come to terms with knowing that shortly you will be saying goodbye to your beloved wife and children, forever?? How can you handle that when it has me in tears just sitting here and reading about someone else doing it?

Nina, I think about you every day. Lots of love, R
Some people just seem to be able to turn cancer into a big and beautiful cake walk. I think they must just be born that way. They glide through it, come what may. For us mere mortals, we keep on going because that is what they would want us to do.
It touches me every time I read someone's story - how often the word love comes into the final few sentences. Love; It's a wonderful, wonderful word.
