I am sharing this:
No One Picture Can Tell It All
The stately white columns of the
reception hall’s entrance stood out all the more because of the faded and
weather beaten brick that surrounded it. The colorful rainbow of flowers that
greeted its guests took their breath away.
The slight summer breeze rustled everyone’s hair as one by one family,
friends and strangers passed through the massive iron doors.
Dad needed to rest. Even this
short walk from the car presented a great challenge to lungs weakened by
cancer. But he was determined not to let those destructive cells ruin this
special day for his granddaughter. Amidst the internal agony unseen by those
passing by, he stood tall and resolute, thankful to be there – a man who hours
earlier nearly coughed himself to death.
Amidst all these challenges, one could still detect that ever present
but now fading twinkle in his blue Irish eyes.
