There are many things that run in my mind.  Usually around 100 miles an hour.  As I was posting a few of my Halloween pictures, I got to thinking people might think it's creepy we took our kids to a cemetery.  Well, it's a historical cemetery and most grave markers are from the 1800's.  It's really a awesome place to learn history and wonder how people lived back then.  Do our kids thinks it's creepy?  Nope, they ask to go.  We have had such tragedy in our family the last 7 months, one thing I want to teach them that a cemetery is not scary or creepy.  It's a place were you can go and feel close to your loved ones.  I find myself at one cemetery very frequently, giving the peace sign as I drive by, and straining my neck just to make sure the marker is still there.  In bible study we are working from a book that teaches you to live life like you only have 30 days.  It talks about the dash between your birth and death date.  That is the only thing you are in control of!  Life is short, remember the ones no longer with us and be or become who they would you to be.
