Tony Snow On Cancer And His Faith
Posted in Salt and Light
I just received the best quote in a long time that restores perspective for our lives. It comes from
White House Press Secretary Tony Snow, who is battling a recurrance of his colon cancer. When answering impromtu questions from the media about how he has been doing, he said,
"I am actually enjoying everything more than I ever have." And then he said, "God hasn't promised us tomorrow, but he has promised us eternity."
How can you top that? Perhaps it speaks more to me because of my having to cope with a disability, but really, abled or disabled, that's what it all comes down to.
Inspiring.
There isn't anything one can add to that. Did the reporters ask him any additional questions regarding his comment? Or did they move on? I can imagine that some might have had a shocked look on their faces.
A great comment from a great man. I admire him very much.
