As I was looking through pictures of my Cousin Gale today I found this and thought it was meant to be shared and fitting at this very sad time. IN TIMES OF TROUBLE...Analyzing the causes of anguish is an effort wasted. There is no going back. No spell can change what has happened, no blaming this or that. Whenever you're deeply troubled, persuade your mind to concentrate on little present pleasures. Give yourself time to heal and be still. Loss leaves us empty-but learn not to close your heart and mind in grief. Allow life to replenish you. When sorrow comes it seems impossible- but new joys wait to fill the void. I wish you the happiness of letting the past go- and finding new beginnings. I wish I could save you from every sorrow, every disaster and every failure. But then you would be cut off from all other creatures on the planet.It is our heartache much as our happiness that makes a family or a marriage or a friendship. If I could give you anything it would be the very heart of your life that would remain tranquil and certain whatever befell... Hold happiness gently. It is on loan. God speed Gale.
