I love that statement -‘our paths stay forever braided together, whether here or there’. It brings some comfort as I remember my dad and my youngest brother.

Time flies! Love seeing the photo. I don’t think you have aged – only the computer style.

It was my Nana’s favorite hymn, also sung at her funeral many years ago. I just texted my mom. She’s watching it too, and we’re both a bit teary eyed! I love your post. Focusing on those who are part of lives rather than the passing fashions is indeed profitable. Blessings on your weekend, Lisa!

As I think back to some very hard days with my parents last year, what I remember most is how much closer I got to my dad and how God healed my mom. I know we have more hard days ahead, but for now, those thoughts are helping me enjoy each day as it comes. As for clothes and such, I’m in the process of culling my closet, getting rid of stuff I don’t wear and don’t like. I asked my 16-year-daughter to help me, and I was a bit shocked to realize that some of the stuff she pulled out is older than her! Beautiful post (and I love the picture too)!

Because the past has done its work.” I love this idea. so often our past haunts us and it ruins the present because it hangs onto us like and anchor, but we can release the past and all it’s mistakes and heartaches because we have looked at it and learned the lesson God wants us to keep. And then, it’s time to move on…. thanks

I love this trip down memory lane that you took us on. And I’m grateful you have highlighted the threads of your days that mean so much to you still today. Beautiful and poignant, my friend!

Simply beautiful. Love this, “But it is safe to release the past. Because the past has done its work. We won’t forget it. Who we once were has become part of who we are now.”
