Life

Today I woke up and thanked God for another day and another chance to live right and therefore be an example.

Then I checked my watch and realized that I was a grandma for the 4th time. Another grandson.

As I thought about the last grandson, I wondered how many people take time to really look at life as they pass through it. Does anyone wonder how God planned all the parts that go into a little child upon birth? Do people really take time to look at the sunsets and wonder how those beautiful skies are arranged so beautifully? Does anyone ever take time to really stop and study a beautiful flower?

Everyone is so busy with their daily lives, coming and going from work in what seems like, more than usual traffic. Having to work and then do errands on their lunch hours.

We're so busy saying "life is short", "stop and smell the roses", "life is so precious", but are we really doing anything to appreciate LIFE?

Are we realizing that people as young as 18 are dying of heart attacks, that people are dying of sleep apnea, that just crossing the street can be a danger to our health? So with all of this, why aren't we taking the time to appreciate life more? To be better people, better role models for not only our children but those around us wherever we go?

As for me, I chose to live right, love alot and make every day my last because I truly don't know when my last day will come and I don't want any regrets.

Till next time.....
