"When it is dark enough you can see the stars." (Emerson)

This month as a difficult month. A friend of mine passed away from breast cancer...my first breast cancer friend to pass away. I've known her for two short years but it was my honor to have met her. Throughout her cancer journey she only exhibit strength and a positive attitude. I only heard her say she was scared once. She fought a hard battle and she's now at peace.

She visited me in my dreams three days leading up to her memorial. Her memorial was standing room only. Covey's second habit that I keep mentioning in my blog is "Begin with the end in mind." What do we want people to say about us at our funeral? Her bright smile and courage was the theme that day. Even though she was taken from us too soon, I find comfort that she made the best of her short time on Earth and touch so many people's lives. She will be missed greatly.

We have a new shining star, a new angel with a heart of gold.
