My Newbie is Showing...Part 3

Let Me Tell You About Ben

A friend of mine lost her husband recently. I kept saying I would go to his funeral, but it wasn’t a funeral. It was a celebration of life. He was only 28 when he exited Planet Earth. They found him collapsed in a snowbank, maybe massive heart attack, maybe something else, we just know he blessed the hearts and lives of those he came in contact with for 10,353 days.

Ben had this way about him that he lived his life with no regret and refusing to say the word die/death. Everything was “eternal(ly)” or “where’s the party?” And no, he was not shallow. He was Christian and just enjoyed life to its fullest (every last bit of it) and wanted you to have that same joy.

I could learn something from that.
