Essence of faith.I opened the April issue and found two articles that spoke to my needs: The Editor's Note Editor's Note (foaled in 1993 in Kentucky) is an American thoroughbred Stallion racehorse. He was sired by 1992 U.S. Champion 2 YO Colt Forty Niner, who in turn was a son of Champion sire Mr. Prospector and out of the mare, Beware Of The Cat. Trained by D. , "The way to dusty death" by Catherine O'Connell-Cahill, and The Examined Life, "Are we there yet?" by Bryan Cones. Both were poignant reminders of how long the road can seem and how little we know in advance of its turnings. But both were also full of faith and beautifully written. A much-loved cousin of mine had just died of a late-appearing lung cancer lung cancer, cancer that originates in the tissues of the lungs. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States in both men and women. Like other cancers, lung cancer occurs after repeated insults to the genetic material of the cell. from asbestos infiltrates Infiltrates Cells or body fluids that have passed into a tissue or body cavity. Mentioned in: Eosinophilic Pneumonia , and many friends are now coming into their final chapters with suffering as their only sure companion. I would add that my own favorite gospel is about the road to Emmaus as Jesus' followers sorrowfully sor·row·ful adj. Affected with, marked by, causing, or expressing sorrow. See Synonyms at sad. sor  row·ful·ly adv. ponder his cruel death and their failure to understand why this had to happen. It continues to give hope, as do essays such as the "bookends" of the April issue. Sally M. Leighton Elmhurst, Ill. |
