Wise Words ...
... from Brother Tobias of In a Godward Direction, commenting here on Scotty's death:
"The cost of love is pain."
Ain't it the truth?

Ain't it the truth?
There are only two possible lifestyles: Gospel and not. Full stop.

Yes, wise words indeed.
I saw that comment... and yes, Tobias is so wise. Those words have hovered around me since I read them.
And my prayers stay with you Lisa.
CS LEwis said something similar, about Joyce:
The pain I feel now is the happiness I had before. That's the deal.
Thanks, y'all.
And, IT, I think Tobias is even more articulate and poetic than Lewis. Does that make me a heretic? ;-)

No.
It makes you theologically competent.
How are you doing, my dear friend?
I've been cuddling and playing with my boys a lot more, the last couple of days.
We're thinking of you, Lisa! Hope you are doing well.
I agree, Tobias is better. Always.
...but the benefits are ETERNAL!
[That's my faith-claim, anyway. Any "Heaven" w/o my Mitzi and Sasha (my Labs of blessed memory)? Fuhgeddaboutit!]
Just checkin in again, {{{Lisa}}}. How's it goin?
In time I trust the memories will sustain you past the sad times just now. Every Blessing
Life's hardest truth....
(((Lisa)))
I know you aren't wanting to talk, right now, Lisa.
Just wanted to let you know - we're all still here.
Thanks to all of you. And especially to you, Mark: You're right; I just have not been able to talk about "It." I thought I might blog about it tonight, but I just couldn't. So I'm blogging about other stuff ... waiting 'til I can talk about that last day with Scotty.
Hug your critters close. Love them deeply.
