Your Dying Spouse 337 - Rising Above

I have to apologise, this will be ery short. A couple of awful days put paid to what I wanted to write.

But I do have a suggestion for you...if you haven't seen it yet, rent or buy the film Passengers.

It's a really terrific exposition about what we can do to rise above the bad things that happen to us...or are done to us.

Here's the trailer. The movie is far better, and far deeper, than these few minutes indicate. I'll write a bit more on this, strength permitting, later this week.

  1. No need to apologize, friend. When you feel up to it, write your heart out. When you don't, give yourself that grace.

    Peace.

    1. Norma, thank you so much. It's got to get better...but today was nothing short of awful. Have to hit bottom and bounce, right?

  3. I wonder how many of us who visit you here want to scream out, "C'mon, God, give him some comfort!"

    *raises hand*

    Prayers.

    1. Jeanne, I so appreciate the prayers. As I write this (evening of Wednesday July 20)...the day was just dreadful.

      I think you'll like the movie. It's deep, nuanced, and really well-made.
