Rest In Peace

Relationships & OthersGratitude & Perspective

On my second call with Steve a few minutes ago(we spoke last night) he informed me Don died at 70. A heart attack took Don to his final resting place. I’ve known Don for about 15 years or so and he was a great guy. A doctor by profession, Don helped a bunch of people on his journey. It’s sad to think he’ll no longer be around to assist those in need.

Today, Friday, December 27, 2019, I am grateful that:

I was fortunate enough to have known Don for as long as I did. I hope his family finds comfort beyond understanding.

I got a message from Liz. We’d met as coworkers at TD Ameritrade and our friendship has survived for more than a decade. A truly great woman of God, I’m looking forward to speaking with her soon and learning more about her new husband and how she’s dealing with marriage. When last we spoke, they had planned on getting married during the summer but I hadn’t had a chance to speak with her in several months now so it’ll be great to catch up with her.

A little melatonin has helped get me to my normal hours of work. I’d been off schedule for about a month now and I purchased some melatonin yesterday to help adjust my sleeping pattern. Unlike with active depression, I didn’t need sleeping pills and a doctor’s prescription only a natural supplement and a bit of quiet. I rested well and for that I am truly grateful.

Be Great. Be Grateful.
