Grief has no timetable, no straight road, and no map—but it does have travelers who understand. In this episode, Ray reflects on the exclusive “club” of the grieving and offers a deeply personal, hopeful path forward. Drawing wisdom from the Bible, West Texas road trips, and the poetry of Robert W. Service, he explores what it means to choose life even when every step feels like walking through darkness. If you’re navigating your own desert of loss, this episode reminds you: the tomatoes won’t grow there forever—but you will. One day at a time.
