"The sharing of joy .... forms a bridge between the sharers," Audre Lorde
Dwane was in an especially buoyant mood yesterday. While these moods, as well as lucidity, come and go, I think yesterday's good mood was in part because of an early morning phone call from his daughter. It is so important for each of us, and one of the steps in dying, to know that what we did with our lives has value. When raising children was part of one's life, a positive relationship with them can give meaning to our lives. A reason for joy.
