Life is like an airport terminal.
Sure enough there is noise, irritation, and fatigue. But there is the joy of
people coming and going from my life. Our lives intersect in many meaningful and often funny ways.
Some friends keep flying back into my life. Others take off and never return. They leave behind memories and a whiff of fragrance: laughter, godliness, prayer, wisdom.
I stand on the concourse, memorize the faces, and savor these holy wonderful smells.
