Dear Friends,
I guess you could call me an orphan. I have been on my own for some time now and have become the next generation. Since our joining JWD, we have been individually and collectively saddened by one another's loss of mother or father. It seems that almost weekly condolences and offers of love and support have raced electronically from one PC to another. Now that I have personally come to terms with life and the inevitability of death, I feel settled in so many ways - at last - and wish that my parents were here to thank for all that they had given me. I have forgiven them for their mistakes because they loved me so much. Who I am and what I do everyday is because of what they gave me.
Apart from the obvious provisions of food, clothing and shelter, what one (or two or...) gift(s) from your parents are you most grateful for? I am most grateful for their surrounding me with books, art and music. And you?
Love,
CoCo
