A while back I was studying bees. When bees sting you, they soon die. The loss of their stinger brings forth death. Today I discovered this post by Garrett Starr. I don't know Garrett, but found him through a dear friend's blog. For my readers who know my story and the stories I've told recently regarding the loss of loved ones, I felt it appropriate to share. It is the most poignant introspective grace-filled thinking I've come across in the last few years regarding death--and life. For heartwarming encouragement on a life that has no sting in death, please read Garrett's thoughts and pass them on. selahV
