A very happy and very sad day

I'm including this journal image tonight, because I'm at a loss
for what to say.  We had a wonderful day with family down at
the lake, and were revelling at how lucky we are, when on
the drive home we heard the news that Steven's brother on
the other side of the country, died alone today, telling no one,
that he had cancer. 

His brother was a wonderful man, kind, generous, always
understanding.  So it is a very sad loss.  My heart goes
out to the rest of the family. Meanwhile hug the people
you love, and let them know you care about them.
It does feel on days like today that life is way too short.

Have a loving your life day!
