Post Script: A Man's Globe

You may recall my mentioning a globe that sits in my boss's office. If not, that story can be found here.

My boss passed away unexpectedly Thursday evening. We were good friends. That night I sat in his office for a long time, staring at his empty chair and twirling the little silver globe in my hands as I often did when I talked with him.

The next morning, a shocked staff wandered in to work. Many sat in his office as I had done, staring in to the distance.

I couldn't help but notice, the old globe disappeared that morning. Nothing else has been taken. At first it seemed cold that someone would raid the office of our departed friend so quickly. But then, I understand why they took it.
