Anyone see Oprah yesterday?

Although I disagree with many of Oprah's perspectives her show yesterday brought a little gratitude to my heart. Her show was about unforgettable dads. One Segment featured a single dad of 9, a man whose wife died shortly after giving birth, and one of a single mom whose son only met his dad once before he was killed in Iraq. I couldn't help but cry as I saw those sad stories and thought about how fragile life is. Yesterday I also found out that a woman at work's sweet 4 year old daughter Kendra had died after a year long struggle with Leukemia. The responsibility of sending flowers, collecting donations, choosing a card, and sending the obituary fell on me so I couldn't help but be consumed with thoughts of life and death and questions of recovery.  How do you go on with your life without those you love? I can't imagine overcoming such great losses but I know that it's possible through faith in Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father's plan. The greatest thoughts on my mind have been to live with gratitude and cherish those we love. I hope I can be more content with my life and look out of my tiny little world and see what I can do for others...
