Happy Friday!


"As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back."


I don't know about any of you, but over the course of my life I have wasted WAY too many 60-seconds intervals upset with myself, someone else, or circumstances in life. Life is too short, too wonderful, and too precious to waste any of those treasured and numbered minutes...upset. Watch a sunset, blow bubbles with your child, turn up the music and dance in your living room, hug a stranger, use the good china, share yourself with others--your REAL self. LIVE and LOVE with reckless abandon! Give up the past, stop dragging it behind you. (Take it from someone who has done it long enough!!!!) Cut the ties that bind you, take a deep breath in, and go really live life and love deeply...it is exhilarating!
HUGS,
C

I would add only this thought, look back each night before you pray and head off to sleep, ask yourself if the time you spent was used doing quality things with/for others, if not, pray and plan to do better tomorrow. If it was, thank God for a great day and sleep in peace.
