Imagine that theres an anvil hanging by a rope, swinging from a high, high ceiling. The rope is slowly fraying, you cant move out of the way,but you know the rope will break, and the anvil will fall on you. Its inevitable.Theres nothing anyone can do to stop it. You know its going to fall.But it doesnt change the fact that when it falls, it will still hurt.
I just learned minutes ago that my mother in law passed away from this earth. She had MS, her death was not a surprise, shes been slowly losing bits of herself for the past...15 years or more Her death was very much like the anvil.We knew it was going to happen for a very long time.But it still hurts. Hurts even though by the time I joined their wonderful family she wasn't the woman they all know and love. She was a fraction of the giant of a person she is. I love her. I think she is one of the most wonderful people on this earth I ever got the chance to barely know. She is kind,charitable,brave,amazing,beautiful,strong,loving,patient,a friend,a mommy,a grandma,a wife...a phenomenal woman. She will be greatly missed.She will be greatly appreciated in the Heavens.Love you Karen Mcgrath Nay.Serve,Run,and watch us grow, from above.
