Sadness leads to hope

This past week Optimist Club members in the Pacific Northwest District learned they had lost a friend quite unexpectedly. Shock and then sadness was shared between those left behind. The district boundaries stretch from Idaho to Alaska and individuals from each area felt a loss.

At times like this, I am reminded of the Lee Ann Womack song, "I Hope You Dance." It always makes me cry, but it's a good cry,  a healing cry, as we hope our children and friends always live life to the fullest.

Please enjoy this week's choice for Music Sunday and remember even in your greatest sadness, there is hope.
