#2346 Friday 24th January

I'm sitting at the bedside of my sister Maxine as she negotiates the end stage. 

The last road

It's lonely as I struggle down this road
The way constantly gets harder
and steeper with more rocks to trip me up
Sometimes a friend will watch
And offer words of support
But words don't smooth the way

The four truths can help
If I can only absorb them

The suffering exists
The suffering has a cause
There will be an end to the suffering
There is a way to ease the way

And there will be an end.
