Live today to the fullest, because tomorrow is not promised.

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 any more.

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 dogs with bad hips.

We keep them because they are worth it.

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!

Who are 'keepers' in your life.

I was thinking...I could die today,

tomorrow or next week,

and I wondered if
I had any wounds needing to be healed,

friendships that needed rekindling or
three words needing to be said.

Let every one of your friends know you love them.


And just in case GOD calls me home
I LOVE YA!!!

Live today to the fullest, because tomorrow is not promised.

Why is there pain or sadness associated with death? Religious people believe that their loved ones will, for the most part, go to Heaven. This is not a bad thing. If anything, they should throw Death Day parties.
