A friend of mine sees her death on the horizon.  Medical staff are starting to use the word “hospice”.

Sad … yes.  And also magnificent.  What a life she’s had, contributing to the lives of thousands of people.

I just wrote to her …

Yuh done good

And really, haven’t we all?  Even those among us who appear to be mean-spirited have a sweetness of care beneath.  For some of us, the caring bursts forth every day, maybe every hour.  Effortless love.

I’m gazing at all the folks who have peopled my life, and imagining those yet to come.

Each and every one of you …

Yuh done good
