All that you will and Ginger encounter over the coming weeks, months and years will sing, somehow. And grace provides a constant accompaniment that never leaves or forsakes the rhythm of our lives.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03119943581970095780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20010538.post-1143828528257479212006-03-31T13:08:00.000-05:002006-03-31T13:08:00.000-05:00You are such a gifted person - in many ways, it se...You are such a gifted person - in many ways, it seems.

I’m not quite prepared for this particular movement. There is no score, and I don’t know this piece by memory, or even by heart."<BR/><BR/>Brought tears. Partly because of the picture you drew and the way you tied it back to the symphony last night, but mostly because it could be a tough road ahead for your family. Loss is inevitable, I know, but it never fails to stir my deepest emotions. Losing the ability to map life out like you once could feels cruel. I truly pray that is not what your family faces.Fenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10971924116248682896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20010538.post-1143815099989523592006-03-31T09:24:00.000-05:002006-03-31T09:24:00.000-05:00According to Webster's, the word "opus" derives fr...According to Webster's, the word "opus" derives from the Latin oper- and means to work, usually connoting a musical composition. One's magnum opus is one's greatest achievement.<BR/><BR/>I can see B. Breathed's Opus in that context.<BR/><BR/>What a wonderful phrase about your father-in-law: "a virtuoso of daily life." Despite the certainty of pain in your father-in-law's behavior and diagnosis, I am sure that we who read your blog will be enlightened by your journey through it. I hope the writing eases the experience for you.<BR/>~CharlotteCharlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05868673314903949354noreply@blogger.com
