“a meaningful life is only found by submitting ourselves to something higher and more noble than ourselves.” For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake, he is the one who will save it.

This saying of Jesus changed my life and 40 years later continues to do so. Excellent essay!

Thank you for writing this. Reading of your decision making I realise again how much my father's decision to have heart surgery was a brave act of love and service to us all.
