a lesson for us all

The OPYO family lost a beloved member on Sunday when alumna, Rebekah Warren, officially found her angel wings - although she had been using them for 19 years to bring her glowing spirit and infectious enthusiasm for all things good to to all those whom she graced with her presence.

While we're all poorer for her loss, let's be wiser, too...by opening up to the right people about the hurts we're hiding, so we may be healed and made whole again...so we may see that what seemed impossibly large is little more than a misconception...and that we may lead full-term lives of love, happiness, and contribution. Just image what Rebekah could have done with 70 more years...for herself, for us...for everyone.
