Like Beth said - the story itself is prophetic... I am struck by the shocking transience - the strange appearance and then demise of the prophet, countered by the (uncomfortable, even unwelcome) permanence of his words. The true words of a man who speaks truth cannot be forgotten, even if we might wish to mock, dismiss, or disregard his hard truths.

Very much like your battle today, you are and have been here for a very long time. Those words have become prophetic in many ways. I'm constantly amazed at your tenacity and fighting spirit, so your retelling of those difficult days gives me something of a glimpse into why you are still here and still fighting!
