Temporary


This is James, and his girlfriend, Kim. James is a friend of mine from college. We used to play poker and smoke cigars together. I never met Kim.

A week ago, there was an avalanche in northern BC. Kim was killed.

I'm sorry, James, that I never met her. If you loved her, she must have been something special. My heart is with you now.

To everyone else, remember that you are temporary.

Temporary only until God places you lovingly within the I AM.

You show such empathy for so many people in so many ways Rachel, you are a wonderful friend.

I wish I had something comforting and profound to say - like the comments you leave for me. But really it all just sucks and is terribly sad. I'm sorry for all you and your friends are dealing with.
