I got some bad news yesterday....the day started out like any other but later in the afternoon i got some news from a friend that her good friend passed away the day before. Its always a shock when u hear news about someone passing away, whether u know that person or not, it kind of makes u think about ur own life. This woman left behind a husband and 2 small kids, 10 and 5. She had been fighting various cancers for the last 5 years. The thing that got me was that my friend mentioned that she went to see her on sunday and planned to go on tuesday, but when she tried to reach her friends husband to no avail, decided to call the house only to find out that she had passed monday during the night. Her major regret... I wish i had spent more time with her at the hospital, i didnt think that sunday would be the last time i would be with her :(
After this news, i couldnt think about it without tearing up, Im crying now, while writing this. We all know the drill, tell ur loved ones u love them, spend time with them, enjoy each other cause u never know if today will be urs or their last day .....Now we all think about that, but do not put it in practice. We put off spending time with family and friends for yard work , hockey, football game, holiday shopping even.
Stop what your doing and let the ones close to u know how u feel, how they r loved, appreciated. 3 small words that mean no much.
