Upon waking up today I learned of yet another death of somebody relatively too young. It brought back all those familiar feelings of losing a loved one too soon..20 mos ago ,almost to the date, I lost my 54 yr old husband of 20 yrs.
Why is it only when we hear about death or tradgedy that we start to appreciate the people and blessings in our life? Prioriitize things?. And why doesn't that mindset last very long?
I've certainly made a lot of bad choices these past 20 mos,but, I've also grown tremendously. Death has a way of changing a person, forever, and it doesn't neccesarily have to be for the worse.
Every experience you have in life, every person you meet are for a reason, a purpose....to make you who you are. Some of us have to keep learning the same lesson, while others keep learning new ones.
Financial status doesn't define you...your innercore does. You can have everything one minute and nothing the next, and still be very rich in spirit.
Never pass up an opportunity to take a chance....because it could lead to something wonderful. Everyonne is going to get hurt, and have their trust violated.. Remember most people are only in our lives for a season...a reason....each experience shapes us into who we are, and what we give back to this world.
Life is a gift...more precious than any possesion....people. are gifts to be appreciated because you never know how long they will be in your life. Rather, they have passed or just moved into another season, reflect on how they enriched your life, because every person or expttterience, good,bad or ugly has enriched you in some way.. Don't be bitter or angry, just be thankful for what you took from that experiennce.Learn from it,, apply it to your life and grow from it.
Reflect...appreciate and prioritize...hold your memories dear. Chances are most people are only in your life for one moment in time.....
