As I watch my Mom, I am struck with the grace she shows when faced with hard decisions. I am particulary impressed with her calmness in facing death. She told me Monday she doesn't want to die right now (doesn't want to miss anything), but is not afraid to die. She said she is ready and excited to reunite with her Mom and two sisters and meet her father and oldest sister.
My desire for me is to be ready today if it happens to be my time. What a gift it is to have the grace to accept our death whenever it comes and to be ready. Mom has that grace and calmness. As always, she is a great example to me.
