Hard Candy Christmas
I'm glad today was a happy occasion for my girls. Seeing their lit up faces and hearing their delighted squeals and giggles was heart warming. The miracle of Christmas is alive in the innocent hearts of my children.
We need a Christmas miracle now more than ever.
My dear friend Chandra does not have long now. Her courageous battle with cancer is nearing the end. My heart is breaking. She is a young beautiful loving woman. I've only known her for three and a half years and she has made such a mark on my life. She has inspired me to better. She has taught me about bravery, humbleness, kindness and love. She has rekindled my creative spirit. I have admired her and loved her from our first meeting. And it seems so unfair that she is going to die. I can't imagine this world without her.
I regret not telling her more often how much of a difference she has made in my life. She is a truly beautiful soul and I have been privileged to know her even if it was only for a while. I am trying to take solace in the fact that she will no longer suffer. That she will be an angel with gossamer wings and a radiant halo. But every selfish part of me wants her to stay here. To be my friend and the woman we all know and love.
Why does she have to endure this?
God, please whatever plan you have for her please give her peace. Wherever she's going make her vital and whole again. Whenever you see her please let her know how much she is loved.
Amen.
