If half as many kind words are spoken of me upon my passing, my life will have been a good one.

By the way, there are no coincidences in life. What you experienced is exactly what happens when we are open to experiencing living from the heart and listening to the Spirit within.

God bless you.

Tim,

That was great. There are no words for where you are right now or anything that I could say.

Remember, feel, enjoy, think and live.

Your friend,

Martin

An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

Thats one of those stories that you will forever remember.  The picture of you dragging the deer out, makes me chuckle.  Judging by the smiles on Fred's face he was a joker and a lot of fun being around.  Id be willing to bet he was watching you drag that one out alone and chuckling that you had the heavy end this time.  Congrats on the best kind of closure a hunting buddy would want for you.

I lost my best friend and hunting buddy Mike 9 years ago.
I feel his presence often in the woods and especially during the anticipation leading up to deer season.
So sorry for your loss. I'm certain he's in a better place and we'll all hunt together again someday.
