“To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

True words as I ponder the life my father-in-love has lived for 95 years and the rich legacy of family he has created. Every story shared solidifies his status as a truly a successful man.

Today we will spend the day with him again as we prepare to let him go.

I’m a writer, reader, and creative. I thought by now I’d have things figured out, but I keep coming up with more questions. I think that’s okay. I’m here most mornings pondering ordinary things and the thin places where faith intersects.
