The cycle continues
For a span of about 2 months one winter, while working for EMS, my partner Brett and I encountered a strange phenomenon. Every time we received a call for someone in distress, who ended up dying before we got there or in the unit or upon arrival at the hospital, the VERY next call would be the birth of a healthy newborn.
I don't pretend to be able to put into words the compassion necessary for those mourning Mr. Morris.
But this weekend while Mr. Morris' passing was discovered, friend and fellow blogger Stephen, and his wife Kate, had their baby, a healthy boy.
One never replaces the other, but sometimes the renewed view of the cycle of life can give us some solace and refuge in our mourning. I hope it does for the Morris family and friends.

It's a weird thing, this cycle. My uncle who lived in Baker just passed away, too. I don't pretend to understand how the cycle works, just that it is.

This is all so very true even without the passing of a family member or beloved friend. Case in point, the renewed innocense and love a grandchild or sharing a special day with my son in difficult times. Love you much, Mom
