My (wife’s) Uncle Mark posted a link about a colleague of his who had a sudden cancer diagnosis and died shortly before his daughter’s wedding. Even as far as tragedies go, it’s really heartbreaking.
I didn’t know this man or his family. But I assume I would like them.
But even if I knew the guy and hated him, it would still be a terribly heartbreaking story.
I don’t know why my mind went there, but it dawned on me that even people I really don’t like will have some devastating heartbreak in their life. In our human life, it is inevitable.
Realizing that, opens my heart to them even if just a little.
