We all have moments, days; maybe weeks we wish we would not be. Obligations, events, activities requiring our attention or presence, pieces of life we’d rather avoid. And then they are over and we realize the anticipation had rearranged our lives, put us on edge with a fear believing these moments would go on forever, but they don’t. During my 10 years of hospice work as others shared their walks, I learned many lessons I’d never requested participating in last moments. Moments the dying fully lived, as only moments, to be added to a journey we don’t understand. Live each moment today, realizing after these moments, life will go on, and is overflowing with possibilities.
