Tonight I received one of those phone calls no one ever
wants to get – news that a friend has passed suddenly and without warning. My heart is heavy for her family, for her
coworkers, friends and for myself. We
just spoke last Sunday and my last memory will be of her laugh, her smile and
her radiance for life. She was planning
on retiring on December 31st and was excited for what life had in
store for her. While I know my friend
lived a full and happy life, her untimely death reminds me to greet every moment
and every person with a full heart, an open mind and to live each day as if
it’s my last. Leave no words unspoken.
Today as you move through your day, take pause to love those
closest to you, forgive those who have wronged you, be kind to someone who you
might not usually talk with - and laugh.
Laughter is the music of a happy heart and will play long after we’re
gone for those who miss us.
