This was sent to me as an email...and it's something I think of so often.
Why wait to tell someone what they mean to you, or the impact they have
had on your life until it's too late....Don't waste another minute...tell those you love just how you feel.
WHAT IF THERE ISN'T ANYMORE
One day a woman's husband died, and on that clear, cold morning, in
the warmth of their bedroom, the wife was struck with the pain of
learning that sometimes there isn't "anymore". No more hugs, no more
special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to
chat, no more "just one minute."
Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used up and goes away,
never to return before we can say good-bye, say "I love you." So while
we have it, it's best we love it, care for it, fix it when it's broken
and heal it when it's sick.
This is true for marriage.....and old cars... And children with bad
report cards, and dogs with bad hips, and aging parents and
grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are
worth it.
Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved away or a
sister-in-law after divorce. There are just some things that make us
happy, no matter what.
Life is important, like people we know who are special.. And so, we
keep them close!
I received this from someone who thought I was a 'keeper'! Then I sent
it to the people I think of in the same way... Now it's your turn to
send this to all those people who are "keepers" in your life,
including the person who sent it, if you feel that way. Suppose one
morning you never wake up, do all your friends know you love them?
Let every one of your friends know you love them. Even if you think
they don't love you back. And just in case I'm gone tomorrow:
*I LOVE YA!!!
*
Live today because tomorrow is not promised.
*"My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to
do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style"
