What was the first thought you had when you read this? Something like “here we go. What now?” Or worse. I would bet that these words instill dread in most people as soon as they hit their eardrums. I recently had an amazing experience with this. I was sitting with a gentleman at ABODE hewhen he was eating. He is dying. He has a lot of pain. But he kept saying “why me? What did I do to deserve this?” Fortunately I’ve been taught to just listen, not having to come up with a response. But I was expecting it to be a “poor me” question and I certainly wouldn’t have had any negative judgment about it because after all he isn’t dancing on top of the world. But then he surprised the dickens out of me. He said “what did I do to deserve all this kindness and attention? I am being treated in a special way but I’m not special. I’m just me.” I still have goose bumps when I write or think of this. I only hope I can Have one tenth of the gratitude this man has when I’m dying. Do me a favor and say a prayer of thanks for him and his lesson in love and life. You don’t need to know his name.
