I was reading this morning and praying for inspiration for today when my phone rang. Sometimes I sit in the quiet house thinking about J.T. and thinking about the cause and I let the machine get it. However this morning I wasn’t feeling anything but sadness and the ringing was a welcomed distraction. It was a woman who's son went to school with J.T. her son was in pain over the loss of his friend and she wanted to let me know that her son who is severely ADHD could always count on J.T. for a playmate. She said J.T. always had time to be his friend and that he missed him. I knew J.T. was compassionate, kind, and considerate but the lesson he taught me through this story is beyond what I even knew about my son. See what J.T. figured out is that time is love. Time is the most precious gift we can give of ourselves to others. He taught me that the best use of life is love. The best expression of love is time and the best time to love is now.
