When my first thought in response the question, "What do you want to be?" was was not a link to a certain career or occupation title, I felt I had made some spiritual growth.
Many months ago I wrote a note to Aaron which read, "Play the guitar, the world has enough business people." At the time that simple sentence was just an acknowlegement, from a Dad who was pleased with his son's contentment, that the battle was over. He should go to where he found peace and life. The long struggle had taken a toll.
Today I have one son with life ahead of him. Patrick turns sixteen in two weeks. When I think of what he will be, I pray that the only-- what he wants to "be" that matters to him does not include that what gives him a page check.
Peace
Tom

"Be assured that just as an hour is only part of a day, so life on Earth is only part of eternity" - C.L. Allen
I believe that Aaron is experiencing eternal peace with the Lord our God.
