someday

Someday, your parents will be gone.  You will wake up in the morning and have the urge to call them, and realize in that moment that you are alone.  It takes some time to adjust to those feelings, but in time you do.

Hopefully, your parents gave you enough support and direction so that you are prepared to some degree for life in the big world.  We all grow older, we have no choice.  Some of the passages that we face in this life are painful, but with prayer and time, and friends, we adjust.  Many have done it, and each of us can transition too.  It is what our parents would want.

So, if you miss your folks, lean on a friend.  Give your feelings time.  Call your pastor for a cup of coffee.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
