Remembering Not Over . . . Even If Regular Posting May Be

For the last month I took the time to read back through nearly all of Lyle's posts from his blog. I managed to highlight one post a day for nearly every day.

The experience has been enjoyable. Occasionally I fought back tears as I remembered. One of Lyle's younger friends, John Elam, once remarked to me about how our minds work. He said once a person has thought something they cannot erase it. I believe John would say he heard that from someone else or synthesized another's thought.

Whatever the case, once a person has entered our sphere, our world, we do not forget. Our remembering goes on. And, I know not only will my remembering go on but so will all those who shared life with Lyle along his way.

Five Years . . . Hard to Believe

Eleven days from now will mark five years since Lyle suffered a fatal heart attack. Lyle chose the title for his blog after beginning his trek through Dallas Willard's Divine Conspiracy. I am going to re-post some of Lyle's thoughts for at least the next month over on my website. You may expect and "Introduction" to the series tomorrow.
