That's what runners do; they run. If you're not feeling well, you run; if it's lousy weather, you run, and if you're under stress, you obviously go for a run. You run to clear your head. You run to ease the ache in your muscles, and you run just so you can breathe a little fresh air.

No matter what else is going on, there's always time for a run.

Big question: Why?

The big three letter word....Why?  It is one of the first questions we learn in life and continue to use it all the time.  We also question: Why is the sky blue?, Why is the grass green?,  and Why does bad things have to happen to good people?

The last question is the one that I am struggling with the most right now.  And the reason I am struggling with this question is accumlation of several things:  5 years ago, Mister (my husband) lost his mom to leukemia, a week before our wedding my husband's sister's fiance was killed in a car accident, a third cousin of my husband passed way last weekend and just yesterday we got the news that my husband's uncle was killed in a work accident.   

So the new question we have been asking is: has become hasn't this family being through enough death and loss of loved ones in the past 6 years?   Myself, family and friends are asking ourselves and Our Creator this very question.   I think my husband has a good response to this questions: 
Yes we have weathered many storms as a family...
But with God as our rock and friends and family as our shelter, we will continue standing as we always have.

Please keep the Mowery family in your thoughts and prayer while they are going through this difficult time.
