Circle of Life

Yesterday would have been my precious brother's 50th birthday.  Steve was full of love and life before an accident claimed his life way too young.  Yesterday, on Steve's birthday, his dear daughter's son was born.  Her son shares not only the same birthday but also the same middle name as his grandfather.

We never cease to miss those we love and lose, but always cherish special opportunities to acknowledge their continuing presence in our lives.

It's healing for me that Steve's grandson, born on his birthday, has unlimited potential to embody his wonderful characteristics.

May we all seize opportunities to celebrate those who have positively impacted our lives.
