Life is precious

Last Sunday our Gospel Doctrine instructor asked us what we would say to our loved ones if we knew we only had a short time on this earth left. I thought about it on my drive home...I have thought about it every day since then. I thought of what I would tell my husband, what I would tell my children and what I would tell my sisters, my dad and mom and my friends. In my heart I have a message for all of them personally. Life on earth is short. We never know when we will lose someone or be the one who goes.

I told Robb I needed to go home and record in my journal my thoughts on this and on how I feel about my life and the impact each person in my life has made. I used to be really good at writing in my journal when I was at Rick's College and BYU. I love reading what I did back then. Many things have happened in my life since then, both good and bad that I have not recorded. I think I will sit and write a bit tonight in my journal. I have so much to be thankful for.

Life is too short to be mean and selfish. Before you speak, think. Don't ever say things you will regret...to a child, to a spouse, or to a friend. Show a little love; A little love can go a long way. (recognize that Brite Music tune?)

Well, that's all for now. I feel better now. :-)
