Keeping Life In Perspective

"Life is eternal.  We have stopped for a moment to encounter each other, to meet, to love, to share." Paulo Coehlo

Keeping in perspective that each of us has stopped for a moment to encounter each other helps me to handle caregiving someone who is dying.  This will not last forever.  He will be released from his pain.  In the meantime, I can enjoy the encounter I have with him.  I can meet him, love him and share with him when he is lucid -- otherwise I can just sit with him and hold his hand.  It is important to me to make the most of this "moment" in time.
