Trying Times

I always try to "look on the bright side of life". But at times it is pretty hard! It all began with coming home from Christmas in Tucson to hear of my niece Maryn's husband collapsing at work and dying. Joey was 2 days from being 25. The cause? We have no idea! The autopsy found nothing wrong! Hard thing for a young girl to go through. My heart goes out to her and his family and...well, Maryn's family too. Then a lady that I visit teach, her brother died in an avalanche accident last weekend. And now on the news, Heath Ledger died. Hard times. But then I get a wonderful e-mail from Ames in Japan and he talks of "hope". How we have that eternal hope of living with God again and that it is up to us. Time to look on that bright side, I dare say!
