Fragile.....

Yesterday i went to a funeral of a really close freind of jason and his family. i never met him but the funeral really touched me. He was only 29 years old with a wife and a child. It really made me step back and realize just how fragile life is, how blessed i am to have every single day here upon this earth and to cherish every moment with the people i love so much. I began to ask myself lots of questions like... If i died would my husband, family, and friends know how much i loved them? What more can i do each day to lift others and to make a difference in their lives? If i died tomorrow would i be worthy enough to end up where i want to be?( well i know the answer to that is a no, so i better not be going anywhere soon!)etc... These questions helped me come to the conclusion that i need to do better, try harder, so that if today were my last that i would have no regrets. That i could be the person that changed others lives for good and that their lives were better because i was a part of it. To my friends and family.. i love each and every one of you so unbelievably much, am so grateful to have you as a part of my life, and would do anything in this world for any of you!
