This Pilgrim's Progress

The Wall Street Journal has a great mediation on it’s opinion page today.  Authored by Bret Stephens, check out A Lesson Before Dying.

My favorite quotes from the piece:

“Cancer is a heist culminating in murder.”  

“Death cannot destroy the dignity of a dignified man.”

A tree full of memories, love and hope for the season to come. Come Lord Jesus!

A haunt of my foregone youth. The pic kind of says it all.

 “… solemnity flows out of men naturally; but laughter is a leap. It is easy to be heavy: hard to be light. Satan fell by the force of gravity.”

-GK Chesterton in Orthodoxy
