Another snake story, I know! If this is to creepy for you, just skip to the next one. I was at a home out in the country giving care to a man who was gravely ill and very weak. He was in his hospital bed, which had been set up on a screened-in porch at the back of the house from which he could see the barn and stables, which he had built and loved. He and his wife were horse people and in their youth had trained and shown their beloved horses all over the place. The pictures of their horses that covered most of the wall space in their home as well as a huge trophy case in the front hall were a testament to a lifelong passion lived with joy.

Read about how this wonderful couple continued to contribute to their community and about how a snake in their stable taught me a lot about living a full and joyful life.
