I happened to breeze through social media Friday afternoon about four minutes after the Princess of Wales dropped the news about her cancer diagnosis. I’d kept one eye on the chatter surrounding her whereabouts in recent weeks, muttering to myself and a few others about why people couldn’t give the poor woman a break and let her rest until her promised Easter return.
We lost my wife to cancer at 39 around ten years ago, which forever changed our family. I learned tough lessons through hardship. And it is doubtful I would have grasped many of these concepts without that suffering. Her passing changed the direction of my life, started me on a pursuit of God and Jesus that I pray continues forever.
Annie, thank you for the beautiful article.

"Greatness is not intelligence, greatness comes from character."
Absolutely. I've seen that time and again. Intelligent people with character, but character was the key.
The truth well-written. Thank you.
Excellent, and beautifully written.
