"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 "anymore". 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, children
with bad report cards, dogs with bad hips, and aging parents and
grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are
worth it.
Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved
away or a sister-in-law after divorce. 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!
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. Even if you think they don't love you back, you would be
amazed at what those three little words and a smile can do, just in case
I'm gone tomorrow - I love you and thank you.
I received this
from someone who thought I was a 'keeper'! Then I sent it to the people I
think of in the same way... Now it's your turn to send this to all
those people who are "keepers" in your life. Suppose one morning you
never wake up, do all your friends know you love them?
