Last night the father of two of my children died.
To watch them go through the same pain that I have suffered, the same pain that we all ultimately suffer is horrible. I have seen many dead bodies in my life, been at the deaths of loved ones but the total feeling of uselessness that I had last night will live with me forever.
In many ways it is easier to deal with the pain if you are suffering it yourself. I would gladly have taken that pain on board if I could have but the reality is that it doesn't work that way.
I am here when they need someone to talk to, and I shall hold them if they need comforting. I will do all that I can.
As I head off to another funeral this morning with the thought that another is just around the corner it reminds me that we have but a short time on this planet and what we have been given we should use wisely.
So whatever you are doing today go with grace, humility, love and above all passion
