I always struggle with my feelings when it comes to missing a loved one that has passed on, and then at the same time knowing that they are a lot better off where they are now, even better than we all are.
It's sad how we are left with memories of those people who once were such a big, sometimes even small, part of our lives. I'm sure we all miss them, but I also strongly believe that they're in a better place, surrounded with everything and everyone that makes our journey here on Earth a worthwhile one. They found out the truth, the end, or maybe even the next step in a series of stops that consist the purpose of a still unknown to us plan.
I truly feel sorry for those people who believe that we're only a bunch of muscles and bones and that when we're dead the ground that covers us just consumes us and there's nothing left. I can understand how some people don't believe in God, I respect that- there are many unanswered questions, but how can you not see that there's so much more to your own self than a body that functions following a random number of chain reactions. It would be such a waste of intelligence, and by that I don't mean common smarts, but a waste of an intellectual existence. It just does not register!
Wishful thinking? Maybe... I kinda like it though. :-)

Mesothelioma Cancer Awareness
A message from our friends at http://www.asbestos.com/
Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer. One of the primary mesothelioma causes is asbestos exposure. The cancer develops in the mesothelium, a protective membrane that lines three body cavities: the thoracic cavity (pleura), abdominal cavity (peritoneum) and the heart sac (pericardium).
A mesothelioma patient’s prognosis, or the probable course and outcome of a disease’s influence on the body, is influenced by numerous factors. Since a mesothelioma diagnosis often occurs once the cancer has progressed to later stages of development, prognosis is typically poor. However if a patient is diagnosed before the cancer has spread or elects to undergo treatment to combat the cancer, their prognosis may improve.
Asbestos is a naturally occurring toxic mineral that was commonly used throughout the 20th century in thousands of products and many industries. Asbestos is naturally resistant to heat and fire, making it ideal for use in insulation. The mineral was often used in insulation and the fine, flexible fibers were frequently mixed with cement and woven into fabrics. Exposure to asbestos can result in the development of serious illnesses such as malignant mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis.
Like many people before me, I decided to share my thoughts and feelings as written in my personal journal, and also in e-mails I've sent to my family and friends, while struggling with breast cancer. So, if it sounds familiar, please don't fret! I promise that you got the original first, and then it was posted here just so that I don't have to re-write things. Lazy, I know! ;-)
